INTRODUCTION
Corn acreage in North Dakota is increasing at a
very high rate in the last 10 years.
  • Area and production
  • 2011- 2.06 million acre and 5.5 MT
  • 2012- 3.2 million acre and 8.5 MT

  • In high clay soils
  • Leaching is not an issue.
  • Downward movement of water in a high clay soil
    (Fargo soil series) is about 0.015 inches per
    hour, or about 1/3 inch per day.

    infrared

  • Crop Circle-470 emit three bands visible, red
    edge, and near infrared

Materials and Methods
  • Locations and Treatments
  • 51 sites were selected in 2011-2013.
  • Six nitrogen treatments 0, 40, 80, 120, 160, and
    200 lb/acre.
  • Experimental design Randomized complete block
    design with four replications.
  • Plot size 20 feet long by 10 feet wide
  • Soil was sampled to 2-feet in depth for residual
    nitrate-N preplant.
  • P and K applied, if found deficient and
    cooperator
  • application not practical

  • Crop History Soil Texture
  • Previous crop
  • Tillage history
  • Surface-subsurface soil texture
  • Sensor readings
  • Approximately 45 samples/row
  • The NDVI values were averaged for each plot as
    well as for each treatment.
  • Both sensors Crop Circle and Greenseeker were
    used
  • 8 and 12 leaf stage over the top

Overall Conclusion
  • Multiplying INSEY by the corn height improve the
    relationship between INSEYS and Yield.
  • Red edge NDVI is better at 2nd stage than Red
    NDVI.
  • Crop circle red edge was found better as compared
    to Greenseeker 2nd stage.
  • V12 leaf stage was found better in predicting
    yield as compared to V8.
  • Inseason N rate algorithm was successfully build
    with help of sensors.

26
This algorithms is a starting point for
growers. NDSU Computer Science (Anne Denton- a
ICPA presenter) are developing a machine
learning tool, which will help growers to add
their data into the existing algorithm to make
the algorithm their own.
