11. Heavy Metal PB2+ Pollution Detection In Soil Using Terahertz Time-domain Spectroscopy For Precision AgricultureSoil is an important natural resource for human beings. With the rapid development of modern industry, heavy metals pollution in soil has made prominent influences on farmland environment. It was reported that, one fifth of China's cultivated lands and more than 217,000 farms in the US have been polluted at different levels by heavy metals. The crop grows in the polluted soil and the heavy metal ions transfer from soil to the plant and agro-products. As a result, the crop yield... C. Zhao, B. Li |
12. The Device of Air-assisted Side Deep Precision Fertilization for Rice TransplanterRice is the most important crop in China, which has the largest plant area. Fertilization is an important process of rice production, which directly affects the yield of crops, reasonable and effective use of chemical fertilizer can improve the yield of crops. At present, the mechanization level of rice fertilization is very low in China, and the artificial fertilization requires a large amount of fertilizer which caused the uneven distribution.

13. On-Farm Evaluation of an Active Optical Sensor Performance for Variable Nitrogen Application in Winter WheatWinter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) represents almost 50% of total cereal production in the European Union, accounting for approximately 25% of total mineral nitrogen (N) fertilizer applied to all crops. Currently, several active optical sensor (AOS) based systems for optimizing variable N fertilization are commercially available for a variety of crops, including wheat.
