1. Application Of A Canopy MultisensorThe MobilLas mobile canopy sensor was initially developed for variable rate fertilisation and plant protection. Because of the several canopy variables sensed the sensor has wider application in crop and soil variability studies, detailed crop water balance studies, spatial modelling of photosynthesis... A.

2. Spray Deposition Characterization of Uniform and Variable-rate Applications with Spray DronesThe use of unmanned aerial application systems (also known as spray drones) has seen rapidly increasing interest in recent years due to their potential to allow for timely application of pesticides and being able to apply in areas inaccessible to ground application sprayers. Newer spray drone models’ have improved application systems such as rotary atomizers for creating spray droplets and capabilities such as variable-rate (VR) application for site-specific pesticide applications. An investigation... C. Byers, S. Virk, R.K. Meena, G. Rains |
3. AgGateway Traceability API – The Foundation to Track Raw Agricultural CommoditiesThere is increasing demand for food traceability, ranging from consumers wanting to know where their food comes from (GMO, organic, climate-smart commodities), to manufacturers of agricultural inputs wanting to know the effectiveness of their products as used by farmers. Existing traceability requirements focus on the supply chain of goods packaged from their origin to retail grocery stores, with regulations provided by the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) from the US Food and Drug Administration...

4. Machine Learning Algorithms in Detecting Long-term Effect of Climatic Factors for Alfalfa Production in KansasThe water levels of the Ogallala Aquifer are depleting so much that agricultural land returns in Kansas are expected to drop by $34.1 million by 2050. It is imperative to understand how frequent droughts and the contrasting rates of groundwater withdrawal and recharge are affected by climate shifts in Kansas. Alfalfa, the ‘Queen of Forages’, is a water demanding crop which supplies high nutritional feed for beef industry that offered Kansas producers a $500 million production value... F. Nazrul, J.
