#Water application #uniformity is very important when it comes to crop production. Check out our latest #smartmachinery post about how we are measuring the uniformity of low-maintenance and old center pivots and how it can impact yields.

Basic planter settings as speeds and downforce are sometimes under estimated on new planters, but it can decrease planting quality when it comes to seed placement and seed bed formation. Thanks to the Nebraska Soybean Board we will be able to answer some questions for NE Growers!

Tell me you love the work you do without saying a word. After two days of field work, got back to my office and found this hand written thank you cards and letters from the kids I was teaching about #agtech few days ago. There’s no money in the world that can pay for this.

It is always exciting to kick off the seasonal drone flights! This year I will test the effectiveness of drone stand counts. How accurate is it, and how much time it can save? Stay tuned! Nebraska Extension

Awesome day working with two amazing colleges doing manual and drone stand count on a corn field plot and a seeding rate on-farm research plot close to St. Ed. Luan Oliveira Jenny (Rees) Brhel @nebraskex

In Platte County, Brent Melliger, Luan Oliveira, and Bruno Lena are studying how different sidedress nitrogen ramps and biological products affect marginal net return in furrow irrigated and center pivot irrigated corn systems.🌾 #onfarmresearch #growingresults

Hi Friends! I’m looking to hire a Ph.D. Student to join my team in the spring or fall semesters of 2024. More information below

Attending #FIRA Ag Robotics this week gathering insights from all over the world on Ag Robotics and Autonomy. I’m amazed on how much these technologies have been enhanced over the years. Will for sure bring some applications to Georgia in my backpack. UGA Extension

Last week I had the opportunity to share some information about new technologies for specialty crops production at the SE Regional Fruit and Vegetable Conference. Great meeting full of relevant and current topics. #godawgs #ugaextension

Yesterday we kicked off a really important project for our team. We were evaluating the use of a conventional plug-root vegetable transplanter adapted for bare-root onion transplanting, and the impacts that the transplanting quality can cause on onion quality and yield.

Spent the past few days testing and calibrating some of the new equipment for the #2024 Research. Will work from fruit and veg mechanization, robotics, and spraying technologies up quality and yield prediction using UAVs. Unfortunately had a cloudy time for one of the flights.

Register to attend the North AL #Irrigation workshop on Feb. 14th, 2024 rb.gy/z6cjxo

🚨 Call for papers!!! We are receiving submissions for the International Workshop on Hyperspectral and Multispectral Imaging on Agriculture and Geo Applications that will be held during the IEEE International Conference on Image Processing I'm Abu Dabhi. hm-iag.com

Last Friday my students and I received the visit of the director of the 🇧🇷 Institute of Semiarid Research. Dr. Tejo and another scientist were interested in the #PrecisionAg Research, especially #Irrigation Technolgies we use. Thanks Luan Oliveira for the connections. CSES Auburn University

Hi “X” Friends! We are looking for insights on a new grant proposal related to sustainability and labor savings technologies. If you are interested in these two topics, please take the survey below. That will help us a lot! ugeorgia.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_a5… Thanks for your time.

Had the amazing opportunity to share some info about Digital Ag and the role of #AI for Disease and Pest identification at the GA Entomological Society Annual Meeting during the morning, and shared insights on #Onion transplanting quality effects and future prospects (afternoon).

The use of Robots in Agriculture is exponentially growing worldwide. We are testing some of these technologies simulating different outputs, crop spacing, and crop height. With the results we will be able to provide some guidance on the best settings to use for each crop.
