1. Soil mapping with the VERIS U3 soil scanner in a precision farm in Hungary Currently, field crop production faces constant challenges. Extreme climatic conditions, deteriorating circumstances on the field have a negative impact on the quantity and quality of available yields, and the ever-changing agro-economic environment makes the profitability of the sector uncertain. Precision crop production means site-specific agricultural cultivation tied to geographical coordinates. Modern strip tillage technology based on precision technology for crops with wide row spacing... P. Ragán, E. Harsányi, T. Rátonyi, A. Széles, P. Fejér, I. Bácskai Download paper
2. Estimating soil organic carbon from cell phone images Soil organic matter (SOM) is considered as the backbone of soil health and soil quality. Thus, its’ estimation is critical to support the development of management decision including precision agriculture. To overcome challenges of laborious, rather expensive and time-consuming laboratory measurements, recent advances in image acquisition systems provided a new dimension of image-based SOM prediction. However, challenges remain in using soil images taken directly in the field due to var... A. Biswas, Y. Fu, P. Taneja, S. Lin, P. Daggupati, H. Vasava Download paper
3. Estimating greensnap yield damage with canopy reflectance: a case study Grain yield reduction caused by storm-induced plant breakage (green snap) occurs often in corn fields. With climate change and an increasing frequency in the occurrence of extreme weather events, it is essential to develop methods that can accurately estimate green snap damage, so growers can be properly compensated by insurance companies for yield loss. Because plant breakage also affects crop canopy reflectance, this case study aimed to characterize the changes in crop canopy reflecta... G. Dias paiao, T.J. Nigon, F.G. Fernández, C. Cummings, S.L.

4. Spectral assessment of chickpea morpho-physiological traits from space, air and ground Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is an important grain legume in semi-arid regions and water-stress is a major constraint to its productivity. Area under chickpea cultivation is growing but climate change toward greater aridity results in higher precipitation instability and risks yields. The ability to assess water potential can support irrigation decisions. Thus, improved ability to spatially assess plants water status can promote more efficient irrigation. The cu... I. Herrmann, R.
