1. Variable-Rate Application Of Nitrogen And Potassium Fertilizers In Louisiana Sugarcane Production Systems.If sugar and cane yields are to be optimized and profitability improved, it is critical that a sugarcane crop receive the proper levels of plant nutrients. Under-fertilization can result in reduced cane yields, while over-fertilization can reduce sugar recovery. In addition, improper fertilization may increase crop susceptibility to environmental stresses and disease and insect pests. Nitrogen (N) continues to be one of the most important and costly... B.J.

2. Onboard Weed Identification and Application Test with Spraying Drone SystemsCommercial spraying drone systems nowadays have the ability to implement variable rate applications according to pre-loaded prescription maps. Efforts are needed to integrate sensing and computing technologies to realize on-the-go decision making such as those on the ground based spraying systems. Besides the understudied subject of drone spraying pattern and efficacy, challenges also exist in the decision making, control, and system integration with the limits on payload and flight endurance...
