1. Variable Seeding Rate to Manage Within-field VariabilityWithin-field variability can strongly influence final crop yield and the efficiency of agricultural inputs such as seeds, fertilizer, water, and agrochemicals, thus managing spatial variability through precision agriculture to optimize input use and improve sustainability can yield significant gains, provided that the mechanisms driving field variability are understood. Despite extensive research on the relationship between seeding density and yield, relatively little attention has been given... B. Maestrini, L.P. Pott, D. Bamberg, T. Liska, T. Rosado, L. Sander, T.

2. Detection of latrine areas in equine paddocks using drones and computer visionEquines can exhibit behaviors that are harmful to the soil, such as spatial segregation, which is caused by their selective grazing pattern. This species may choose its feeding areas based on vegetation structural characteristics, such as forage density, leaf availability, and stage of maturity (which are perceived through their tactile receptors). When present daily, this natural behavior can impair soil health, as spatial segregation within paddocks intensifies and latrine (dung) areas form.... |
