1. Economics Of Precision Agriculture For Wheat And Barley Cultivation In Hamedan, Western IranPrecision agriculture can influence agricultural operation economics. In this study, minimum economical farm sizes for producing irrigated/dry wheat and barley in... M. Lak, F. Khosro anjom, J. Tatge |
2. Soil Organic Carbon Maintenance Requiremnets And Mineralizatyion Rate Constants: Site Specific CalcuationsOver the past 100 years numerous studies have been conducted with the goal of quantifying the impact of management on carbon turnover. It is difficult to conduct a mechanistic evaluation of these studies because each study was conducted under unique soil, climatic, and management conditions. Techniques for directly comparing data from unique studies are needed. This study discusses techniques for comparing data collected... D.E. Clay, G. Carlson, J. Tatge |
3. A Pilot Study on Monitoring Drinking Behavior in Bucket Fed Dairy Calves Using an Ear-Attached Tri-Axial AccelerometerAccelerometers support the farmer with collecting information about animal behavior and thus allow a reduction in visual observation time. The milk intake of calves fed by teat-buckets has not been monitored automatically on commercial farms so far, although it is crucial for the calves’ development. This pilot study was based on bucket-fed dairy calves and intended (1) to evaluate the technical feasibility of using an ear-attached accelerometer (SMARTBOW, Smartbow GmbH, Weibern, Austria)... L.

4. Field-level Zoning at Regional Scale Using Remote Sensing and GIS: Lessons Learned from the Desert Agriculture Region of Southern CaliforniaA decision support tool, SAMZ-Desert, utilizing GIS and remote sensing techniques, was created to delineate management zones (MZs) for a total of 6852 fields in California's Imperial County. Landsat-8 NDVI data from April 27, 2018, was employed for this purpose. Furthermore, 11 cloud-free images captured between 2018 and 2020 were statistically analyzed to assess within-field NDVI variability and the temporal stability of MZs at the regional level. Approximately 37% of the fields in the region... A.K. Verdi, A. Garg, A. Sapkota |
5. Estimating Spatial and Temporal Variability in Soil Respiration Using UAV-based Multispectral and Thermal Images in an Irrigated Pistachio (Pistachia Vera L.) OrchardSoil respiration (Rs) accounts for the autotrophic and heterotrophic respiration happening in the soil and is a major component of the carbon budget of agricultural ecosystems. Rs is controlled by various interactive factors, including soil moisture, temperature, soil properties, and vegetation productivity. To quantify the carbon budget of climate-smart agriculture systems, it is necessary to understand how irrigation and cover cropping management practices impact... A. Sapkota, M. Roby, C. Chen, I.
