Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDEVELOPMENT OF A PROXIMAL MACHINE VISION SYSTEM FOR OFF-SEASON WEED MAPPING IN BROADACRE NO-TILLAGE FALLOWSH. Liu, C. Saunders, S. H. LeeWeeds are among the most significant and costly environmental threats in Australian agriculture. Weeds compete with crop plants for moisture, nutrients and sunlight and can have a detrimental impact on crop yields and quality if uncontrolled. The distribution, size, density and species of the weeds are often heterogeneous in the cropping land. Instead of uniformly spray the same type of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2013 · 7,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment and Evaluation of Tractors and Tillage Implements Instrumentation SystemS. A. Al-Suhaibani, A. A. Al-Janobi, Y. N. Al-MajhadiProblem statement: Field machines contribute a major portion of the total cost of crop production. Proper selection and matching of farm machinery is essential in order to reduce the cost of crop production. Performance data for tractors and implements are, therefore, essential for farm machinery operators and manufacturers alike. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,304 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Novel Disk-type Furrow Opener Used in No-Tillage System on Micro Environment of SeedE. Seidi, S.H. Abdollahpour, A. Javadi, M. MoghaddamProblem Statement: Offset Double-Disk Opener (DDO) is a popular furrow opener in conservation tillage. It has some limitations such as negative suction to penetrate in the soil, hair pinning and mixing seed and fertilizer in the slot. Because of importance of separation of seed and fertilizer in the slot, by adding two horizontal mini disks to DDO a modified opener … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Draft Force for a 3-bottom Disc Plough Under Sandy Loam Soil ConditionsPaul Okoko, Emmanuel A. AjavThis study was performed to determine the draft force for a 3-bottom disc plough under sandy loam soil conditions. The experiments were conducted using five different tractor speeds (3.6, 5.4, 7.2, 9.0 and 10.8 kilometer per hour(km)) and three tillage depths (10, 20 and 30 centimeter(cm)) with a view to determine the actual implement speed at the different tillage depths. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 15 May 2020 · 7,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExperimental Investigation of Thermo-Physical Properties of Soil Using Solarisation TechnologyAhmed Abed Gatea Al-Shammary, Abbas Kouzani, Akif Kaynak et al.Soil Thermo-Physical Properties (TPP) depend on heat transfer in the soil. This paper presents a study on different soil solarisation technologies influenced by soil TPP. This study evaluates three factors: The tillage depth for soil at three levels (15, 25 and 45 cm), the number of plastic film at three levels (single, double and without plastic film) and three cases … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 17 Jul 2017 · 7,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Land Use Practices on the Organic Carbon Content, Cation Exchange Capacity and Aggregate Stability of Soils in the Catchment ZonesMosayeb Heshmati, Arifin Abdu, Shamshuddin Jusop, Nik Muhammad MajidProblem statement: Land use practice leads to changes in the physico-chemical properties of soils, such as Soil Organic Carbon (SOC), Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) and Soil Aggregate Stability (SAS) that cause soil erosion. Approach: Merek catchment, Iran suffers from land degradation due to poor land use practice. A study was carried out with the objectives: (i) to determine soil nutrient … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 25 Oct 2011 · 8,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Kinetic Parameters of a Super Heavy Chisel Plow Under Various Operating ConditionsS. A. Al-Suhaibani, A. Al-Janobi, A. E. GhalyProblem statement: Tillage is a process of creating a desirable soil condition for seed germination and growth. The tillage of soil is considered to be one of the biggest farm operations as the tillage operation requires the most energy on the farm. Chisel plow is widely used by farmers as a primary tillage tool. Performance data for chisel plow operation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Differentiated Nitrogen Fertilization using Satellite Navigation Systems on the Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Crop Yield in the Conditions of Chernozem-Like Soils in the Northern Forest Steppe of the Tyumen Region of RussiaAltynay Oxukbayeva, Nikolai Abramov, Marden Baidalin, Sergei SemizorovSoil cultivation without layers turnover impeded the process of nitrate nitrogen accumulation compared with plowing. The traditional scheme of mineral fertilization applying the averaged standard did not create a heterogeneous level of nutrient supply in primary soil cultivation systems. These factors set them in unequal conditions by default in terms of nitrogen supply to crops. Solid mineral fertilization with the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2023 · 5,201 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractThe Dependence of Photosynthetic Indices and the Yield of Spring Rape on Foliar Fertilization with MicrofertilizersValentina A. Gulidova, Tatyana V. Zubkova, Vladimir A. Kravchenko, Olga A. DubrovinaApplication of fertilizers is included today into the cultivation intensive technologies, as one of the basic components providing for high crop yield. Today, the minimal tillage is widely used, which significantly reduces the choice of fertilizer application method in comparison with classical fertilizers. Therefore, the competent use of the remaining methods of feeding field crops becomes very important. An innovative … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2017 · 6,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Farmers' Income and Soil Environmental Quality through Conservation Agriculture Practice in BangladeshMd. Taj Uddin, Aurup Ratan Dhar, Md. Hammadur RahmanThe study was accomplished for assessing conservation agriculture practice's impact on farmers' income and soil environmental quality in Bangladesh.
