Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico - CNPq; Precision planting has been an emerging concept worldwide; however, the benefits of some technologies associated to this approach are still a knowledge gap. Studies evaluating the benefits of automatic section control technology for planters as well as a comprehensive analysis on soybean seeding rate prescription by yield environme...
The inclusion of winter cover crops and fertilization with nitrogen to the soil can have an effect on their biological and microbiological attributes. The aim of this study was to evaluate biological and microbiological attributes in soil under different winter cover crops and nitrogen doses. The experiment was conducted at the Frederico Westphalen-RS campus of the Federal University of Santa Maria (UFSM) in a ...
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior; The crop productivity mapping is an important precision farming tool enabling more efficient spatial management of agricultural areas. In this sense, the objective of this work was to identify and analyze zones with different grain yield potential (Article I), check the association of chemical and physical properties of the soil with the yield zones (...
The objective of this study was to perform the mapping of productivity and physico-chemical quality of fruit in orchard of 'Valencia' orange, as well as evaluating of the correlation between them valuables, aimed at precision agriculture. The study was conducted in a commercial orchard of 0.82 ha. The collections made on a sampling grid of 18 x 21 m, totaling 29 points. The parameters analyzed were: number of f...
