1. Interaction Between Air Spray Drift And Climatic Conditions Creating Drift Map Related To The Aerial Application Of Pesticides Using Low Volumes In BrazilBetween 30 to 50% of the pesticides total applied over agricultural areas can be lost by the air, depending of the applying conditions, by the spray drift action. This spray drift problem is increased when the field is too close to the urban locations, bringing environmental contamination, and when the application is made with oil on the tank mixture. The society demands by... F. Baio, U. Antuniassi |
2. Modifying Agro-Economic Models to Predict Effects of Spatially Varying Nitrogen on Wheat Yields for a Farm in Western AustraliaAgricultural research in broadacre farming in Western Australia has a strong history, resulting in a significant public resource of knowledge about biophysical processes affecting crop performance. However, translation of this knowledge into improved on-farm decision making remains a challenge to the industry. Online and mobile decision support tools to assist tactical farm management decisions are not widely adopted, for reasons including: (1) they take too much time and training to learn; and... F.H. Evans, J. Andrew, C. Scanlan, S. Cook |
3. Content Analysis of the Challenges of Using Drones in Paddy Fields in the Haraz Plain Watershed, IranDrone technology has gained popularity in recent years as a sustainable solution to changing agricultural conditions. Using drones in agriculture provides many advantages in farm management. However, the use of drones in paddy fields in Iran is a new phenomenon facing numerous challenges. This study aims to explore the challenges for using drones in paddy fields and provide practical guidelines to solve the challenges facing the their application. This research was conducted with a qualitative... J. Aliloo, E. Abbasi, E. Karamidehkordi , E. Ghanbari parmehr, M. Canavari, G.-. Vitali |
4. The Evaluation of Spatial Response to Potassium in SoybeansIn agriculture, the nutrients that are in the largest demand are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K), as product demand increases so does demand for fertilizers. In the case of potassium, most soils can provide potassium in amounts that exceed crop demand; however the potassium within the soil is not always readily available to the crop, this leads to producers apply potassium to their crops even though soil tests suggests otherwise. One such crop where potassium is in demand... S. Akin, B. Arnall |
5. Influence of Potassium Variability on Soybean YieldDue to its role as a plant essential nutrient, Potassium (K) serves as a fundamental component for plant growth. Soybeans are heavily reliant upon this nutrient for root growth and the production of pods, so much so that after nitrogen, potassium is the second most in-demand nutrient. Much of the overall soybean crop grown in Oklahoma is not managed with the fertility of K directly in mind. However, as the potential and expectation for greater yield increases, so does interest from producers... J. Derrick, S. Akin, R. Sharry, B. Arnall |
