Abstract:
Water is a major factor limiting cotton production and farmers must aim to optimise crop water use through timely irrigation scheduling decisions. Airborne video imagery when calibrated with a low density of ground based observations, offers the potential for near real time monitoring of crop condition, through sequential coverages of entire cotton fields. Using commercially available video equipment mounted on a light aircraft images were acquired of field experiments that were established in commercial cotton fields to test if the imagery could monitor changes in crop condition. Ground data

Abstract:
<p> Among all nutrients that are important for crop production, nitrogen (N) is one of the least efficiently utilized, mainly due to its high mobility in soil. The possibility of using crop sensing in real-time to detect variability in N deficiency within a field has the potential to enhance N efficiency, increase crop yield, and reduce potential environmental risks and crop production costs. Potassium (K), another important crop nutrient, can also lead to higher yield when applied in the right amount and manner.

Abstract:
This work investigates the application of new sensors to enable agronomists and farm managers to make decisions for variable treatment strategies at key crop growth stages. This is needed to improve the efficiency of crop production in the context of precision farming. Two non-invasive sensors were selected for investigation. These were: 1) The MGD-1 ion mobility gas detector made by Environics OY, Finland. 2) The EM38 electromagnetic induction (EMI) sensor made by Geonics Inc., Canada. The gas detector was used to determine residual nitrogen and to measure carbon dioxide gas as a surrogate in

Abstract:
A two year study was conducted to determine the optimum timing of the initial post-plant irrigation for cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). A short-season Upland variety, DPL 20, was planted on 19 April 1993 and 15 April 1994 at the Marana Agricultural Center. Daily midday leaf water potential measurements were taken using the pressure chamber technique. Treatments, designated T1, T2, and T3, received the initial post-plant irrigation when the midday LWP measured -1.5, -1.9, and -2.3 MPa, respectively. Soil-water data was collected at 25 cm depth increments using neutron attentuation. Yields were

Abstract:
A data acquisition system to collect soil moisture readings at 60 field locations was developed. The system predicted a resistance value from a measured counts per time. An error was associated with the measured counts and time, however, this error was minimized by increasing the time for resistance measurement. The effect of temperature was minimized by an automatic calibration of the system before collecting readings. The Watermark electrical resistance moisture sensor was used to sense water content. The system, including eight sensors, was tested in the field. The data collected was diffic

A comparative study was performed to investigate the tolerance levels of beet armyworm to three insecticides, cyfluthrin, profenofos, and methomyl. The field strains were collected from Yuma and Marana, AZ whereas the susceptible laboratory strain was obtained from California. Dosage-mortality data were obtained by topical application on third instar larvae. Compared to the susceptible strain, both Yuma and Marana strains exhibited an increase in the LD50 to cyfluthrin by 15.65 and 5.45-fold, respectively. Both strains also exhibited an increase in the LD50 to profenofos and methomyl by 14.10,

Shoot growth of dryland lucerne was limited primarily by the pattern and amount of incident rainfall, but high temperature (30-35oC) also constrained summer production. These high summer temperatures induced greater production when irrigation was applied, but under the normally dry summer conditions high temperatures combi

<p>Cover crop use, especially in no-till systems, is an evolving practice to maintain or improve soil health. There are many possible indicators of soil health, but this study focuses on the analysis of soil aggregate stability, soil active carbon, and soil organic matter. Soil aggregate stability is related to water infiltration and potential for soil erosion, while active carbon serves as an indicator of a readily-available food source for microbial activity, and soil organic matter serves as a mediator for the soil physical, chemical, and biological processes.
