2. Integrated Land Management – ICT Solutions & Business ModelsPROGIS and Adcon have developed a comprehensive solution to address the major challenges of our time: improve daily agricultural practice on all levels, increase and secure food supplies, take care of the environment and manage ever increasing risks, while last not least assist in fighting global warming. In all of the above agriculture is playing a key role, but the methods of the past will no longer be adequate. Information technology is the n... W. Mayer, B. Pacher |
3. Analysis Of Principles For Adaptive Knowledge Management On Pilot FarmsCollected data, which are used in this research, are coming from several different data sources and time periods (soil test, satellite images, airborne pictures, soil type’s maps, yield predictions maps and other agronomist data). According to above mentioned data was calculate also variable rate for application of Nitrogen, Potash, Phosphor and Calcium and applied time table during the 10 years period. Main goal of this... P.

4. Factors Influencing the Timing of Precision Agriculture Technology Adoption in Southern U.S. Cotton ProductionTechnology innovators in cotton production adopted precision agriculture (PA) technologies soon after they became commercially available, while others adopted these technologies in later years after evaluating the success of the innovators. The timing ... D.M. Lambert, J.A. Larson, B.C. English, R.M. Rejesus, M.C. Marra, A.K. Mishra, C. Wang, P. Watcharaanantapong, R.K. Roberts, M. Velandia |
5. Brazilian Precision Agriculture Research NetworkThe adoption of adequate technologies for food, biomass and fiber production can increase yield and quality and also reduce environmental impact through an efficient input application. Precision agriculture is the way to decisively contribute with efficient production with environment protection in Brazil. Based on this, recently Embrapa established the Brazilian P... J.D.

7. System Approach to Implementing Precision Agriculture in UkraineAs Ukrainian agricultural production undergoes major changes, a better understanding of the diversity of land resources is needed to optimize management. Dealing with large fields (over 100 ha in size) with non-uniform growing conditions presents an opportunity for site-specific management of agricultural inputs. This presentation highlights the most satisfactory practices implemented during the past three years and provides an outlook for the continued on adoption of precision agr... I. Boiko |
8. The Daily Erosion Project - High Resolution, Daily Estimates of Runoff, Detachment, Erosion, and Soil MoistureRunoff and sediment transport from agricultural uplands are substantial threats to water quality and sustained crop production. Farmers, conservationists, and policy makers must understand how landforms, soil types, farming practices, and rainfall affect soil erosion and runoff in order to improve management of soil and water resources. A system was designed and implemented a decade ago to inventory precipitation, runoff, and soil erosion across the state of Iowa, United States. That system u... B.K. Gelder, R. Cruse, D. James, D. Herzmann, C. Sandoval-green, T. Sklenar |
9. A Decade of Precision Agriculture Impacts on Grain Yield and Yield VariationTargeting management practices and inputs with precision agriculture has high potential to meet some of the grand challenges of sustainability in the coming century, including simultaneously improving crop yields and reducing environmental impacts. Although the potential is high, few studies have documented long-term effects of precision agriculture on crop production and environmental quality. More specifically, long-term impacts of precision conservation practices such as cover crops, no-ti... M.A. Yost, N. Kitchen, K. Sudduth, S. Drummond, J. Sadler |
10. Synchronized Windrow Intelligent Perception System (SWIPE)The practice of bale production, in forage agriculture, involves various machines that include tractors, tedders, rakers, and balers. As part of the baling process, silage material is placed in windrows, linearly raked mounds, to drive over with a baler for easy collection into bales. Traditionally, a baler is an implement that is attached on the back of a tractor to generate bales of a specific shape. Forage agricultural equipment manufacturers have recently released an operator driven, self... E.M. Dupont, P.R. Kolar |
11. Economics of Field Size for Autonomous Crop MachinesField size constrains spatial and temporal management of agriculture with implications for farm profitability, field biodiversity and environmental performance. Large, conventional equipment struggles to farm small, irregularly shaped fields efficiently. The study hypothesized that autonomous crop machines would make it possible to farm small non-rectangular fields profitably, thereby preserving field biodiversity and other environmental benefits. Using the experience of the Hands Free Hectar... A. Al amin, J. Lowenberg‑deboer, K. Franklin, K. Behrendt |
12. Seed Localization System Suite with CNNs for Seed Spacing Estimation, Population Estimation and DoublesProper seed placement during planting is critical to achieve uniform emergence which optimizes the crop for maximum yield potential. Currently, the ideal way to determine planter performance is to manually measure plant spacing and seeding depth. However, this process is both cost- and labor-intensive and prone to human errors. Therefore, this study aimed to develop seed localization system (SLS) system to measure seed spacing and seeding depth and providing the geo-location of each planted s... A. Sharda, R.

13. Agricultural Robots Classification Based on Clustering by Features and FunctionRobotic systems in agriculture (hereafter referred to as agrobots) have become popular in the last few years. They represent an opportunity to make food production more efficient, especially when coupled with technologies such as the Internet of Things and Big Data. Agrobots bring many advantages in farm operations: they can reduce humane fatigue and work-related accidents. In contrast, their large-scale diffusion is today limited by a lack of clarity and exhaustiveness in the regulatory fram... M. Canavari, M. Medici, G. Rossetti |
14. Agronomic Opportunities Highlighted by the Hands Free Hectare and Hands Free Farm Autonomous Farming ProjectsWith agriculture facing various challenges including population increase, urbanisation and both mitigating and managing climate change, agricultural automation and robotics have long been seen as potential solutions beyond precision farming. The Hands Free Hectare (HFH) and Hands Free Farm (HFF) collaborative projects based at Harper Adams University (HAU) have been developing autonomous farming systems since 2016 and have conducted multiple autonomous field crop production cycles since a wor...

15. Possibilities for Improved Decision Making and Operating Efficiency Derived from the Predictability of Autonomous Farming OperationsFor the last 6 years, small autonomous agricultural vehicles have been operating on Harper Adams University’s fields in Shropshire. Starting with a single tractor on a single rectangular hectare (2.5 acres) and moving on to three tractors on 5 irregularly shaped fields covering over 30 hectares (75 acres). Multiple crops have been grown; planting, tending, and harvesting with autonomous tractors and harvesters. The fields are worked using a Controlled Traffic Farming s... M. Gutteridge |
16. Realising the Potential of Agricultural Robotics and AI: The Ethical ChallengesRecent advances in AI and robotics may dramatically transform agriculture by greatly expanding the number of contexts in which the techniques of precision agriculture may be applied. Inevitably, this next agricultural revolution will generate profound ethical issues: opportunities as well as risks. Clever applications of AI and robotics may allow agriculture to be more sustainable by facilitating more precise applications of water, fertilisers, and herbicides. Robots may take some of the drud... R. Sparrow |
