1 Improving Crop Input Use Efficiency Through Use Of Precision Ag Tools John Shanahan, Agronomy Research Manager Survey of Adoption of Precision Ag in the USA The Economic Research Service (ERS) of USDA has conducted survey every year since 1996 Data collected includes resources required for agricultural production seeds, fertilizer, pesticides, machinery, labor, and the use of precision farming tools, along with yields 2 1
2 Barriers to Adopting Precision Ag Tools Yield monitoring and auto-guidance most widely adopted, because available as standard equipment and easy to use Yield mapping and VR equipment more challenging additional costs associated with data storage/information management requirements Development of suite of information management technologies and/or better decision aids needed 3 Better Decision Aid Tools 1. Geo-spatial data bases combined Environmental information (historical & real-time climatic data) Landscape information (i.e., soils, topography, imagery, etc.) Genotypic and agronomic performance information 2. Geo-spatial orientation enables both regional & within field evaluation 3. Analytical engines to distill information into knowledge and decisions Geo-spatial data bases Environmental Landscape Performance Analytical Engines 2

13 Commercial Crop Sensors Active sensors emit their own source of modulated light onto the crop canopy and measure the percent of that light reflected from the canopy back to the sensor. This measurement is used to assess canopy greenness and biomass to determine crop N requirements. GreenSeeker system distributed by Trimble Ag. OptRx system distributed by Ag Leader. CropSpec system distributed by Topcon Positioning Systems. Active Sensor Operation -- 40,000 Hz modulation -- Night or Day Operation TARGET LED PD1 PD2 PD3 SENSOR 13
