1. Utilization of UASs to Predict Sugarcane Yields in Louisiana Prior to HarvestOne of the most difficult tasks that both sugarcane producers and processors face every year is estimating the yields of sugarcane fields prior to the start of harvest. This information is needed by processors to determine when the harvest season is to be initiated each year and by producers to decide when each field should be harvested. This is particularly important in Louisiana because the end of the harvest season is often affected by freeze events. These events can severely damage the crop... R.M. Johnson, B. Ramachandran |
2. Spatial and Temporal Variability of Soil Biological and Chemical Parameters Following the Introduction of Cover Crops into a Conventional Corn-cotton Rotational SystemMethods to characterize soil microbial diversity and abundance are labor intensive and require destructive sampling that incurs a per unit cost. There are advantages to replacing current methods with remote sensing approaches; the most obvious of which is spatially explicit representation of microbes on agricultural landscapes. Such a method will ultimately address open questions related to (1) the spatial scale of variability in soil microbial activity, and (2) the behavior of microbes in cover... J. Czarnecki, J.P.

3. Simultaneously Estimating Crop Biomass and Nutrient Parameters Using UAS Remote Sensing and Multitask LearningRapid and accurate estimation of crop growth status and nutrient levels such as aboveground biomass, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium concentrations and uptake is critical with respect to precision agriculture and field-based crop monitoring. Recent developments in Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) and sensor technologies have enabled the collection of high spatial, spectral, and temporal remote sensing data over large areas at a lower cost. Coupled deep learning-based modeling approaches with... P. Kovacs, M. Maimaitijiang, B. Millett, L. Dorissant, I. Acharya, U.U. Janjua, K. Dilmurat |
