1. Detecting Variability in Plant Water Potential with Multi-Spectral Satellite ImageryIrrigation Intelligence is a practice of precise irrigation, with the goal of providing crops with the right amount of water, at the right time, for optimized yield. One of the ways to achieve that, on a global scale, is to utilize Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 images, providing together frequent revisit cycles of less than a week, and an adequate resolution for detection of 1 ha plots. Yet, in order to benefit from these advantages, it is necessary to examine the information that can be extracted... O. Beeri, S. May-tal, R. Rud, Y. Raz, R. Pelta |
2. Field Test of a Satellite-Based Model for Irrigation Scheduling in CottonCotton irrigation in Israel began in the mid-1950s. It is based on an irrigation protocol developed over dozens of years of cotton farming in Israel, and proved to provide among the world's best cotton yield results. In this experiment, we examined the use of an irrigation recommendation system that is based on satellite imagery and hyper-local meteorological data, "Manna treatment", compared to the common irrigation protocols in Israel, which use a crop coefficient (Kc) table and...

3. The Use of Spatial and Temporal Measures to Enhance the Sensitivity of Satellite-based Spectral Vegetation Indices to (Water) Stress in Maize FieldsClimate change and water scarcity are reducing the available irrigation water for agriculture thus turning it into a limited resource. Today calculating and estimating crop water requirements are achieved through the ETc FAO-56 model where the effect of climate on crop water requirement is determined through the water evaporation from the soil and plant (ETref), and a calendar crop coefficient (Kc). Models that... Y. Goldwasser, V. Alchanati, E. Goldshtein, Y. Cohen, A. Gips, I. Nadav |
4. Advancing Adaptive Agricultural Strategies: Unraveling Impacts of Climate Change and Soils on Corn Productivity Using APSIMWith unprecedented challenges to achieve sustainable crop productivity under climate change and dynamic soil conditions, adaptive management strategies are required for optimizing cropping systems. Using sensors, cropping systems can be continuously monitored and the data collected by them can be analyzed for making informed adaptive management decisions to enhance productivity and environmental sustainability. But sensors can only tell the past and decisions bring implications into the future.... H. Pathak, C.J. Warren, D. Buckmaster, D.R. Wang |
5. Implementation of Autonomous Material Re-filling Using Customized UAV for Autonomous Planting OperationsThis project introduces a groundbreaking use case for customized Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in precision agriculture, focused on achieving holistic autonomy in agricultural operations through multi-robot collaboration. Currently, commercially available drones for agriculture are restrictive in achieving collaborative autonomy with the growing number of unmanned ground robots, limiting their use to narrow and specific tasks. The advanced payload capacities of multi-rotor UAVs,... V. Muvva, H. Mwunguzi, S. Pitla, K. Joseph |
