The Next Step Beyond Identifying Field Variability: Integrating Unmanned Aerial Systems Into The Farm Management Workflow, Kevin A. Adkins, Christen C. Bailey, Aspen E. Taylor
The Next Step Beyond Identifying Field Variability: Integrating Unmanned Aerial Systems Into The Farm Management Workflow, Kevin A. Adkins, Christen C. Bailey, Aspen E. Taylor
Kevin A. Adkins, PhD
Precision agriculture strives to manage variations in the field in order to increase yield while adapting input factors to preserve resources and decrease production costs. Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are advancing precision agriculture by allowing for nondestructive and convenient, as well as cost and time efficient mapping of spatial variation in fields with higher spatial resolution than previous methods. However, while there is much anticipation regarding the potential role for UAS in precision agriculture, their role still requires additional application-based testing. The objective of this work was to explore how growers best integrate the UAS product into their farm workflow. …
