Radiation interception and yield response to increased leaflet number in early-maturing soybean genotypes
Early-maturing soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars require less irrigation than full-season cultivars and may mature before drought periods most often occur in the midsouthern United States. These cultivars require high plant-population densities for radiation interception and acceptable yields, which increase costs. We hypothesized that seven-leaflet genotypes would have greater leaf area ...

Cotton Planting date: yield, seedling survival, and plant growth
New cultivars, changes in technology and production practices, and climate change may have altered the optimal planting time for cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in the midsouthern United States. A field experiment was conducted from 2002 through 2005 on Gigger silt loam to define planting date (PD) effects on selected cotton cultivars. Six cultivars in 2002 (Deltapine DP555BR and Delta Pearl, ...

The future of agriculture: saving water with Hydroponic Crops
In the hydroponic crops, the plants complete their vegetative cycle without the necessity of using the soil. The water with mineral nutrition (total or partial) is provided through a solution in which the different essential nutrients for their development are dissolved. The future of modern agriculture goes through the optimal use of one of the most limited and most important resources: water. ...

Photosynthetically active radiation sensor and illuminance sensor
Summary: In the study of plant physiology, the determination of plant photosynthesis is one of the important research work. It is generally measured by measuring the value of illuminance and photosynthetically active radiation, and the measurement of illuminance and photosynthetically active radiation requires a light sensor and photosynthetically active radiation sensor.To understand the ...

8 Types Of Agricultural Sensors For Best Greenhouse Monitoring Systems
Background A greenhouse is a closed environment that provides optimal conditions for plant growth and promotes plant growth by controlling indoor and outdoor environments. A complete greenhouse remote monitoring system first detects indoor environmental elements through various sensors and then uploads the measurement signals to the control platform through wired or wireless methods, and the ...

Tree, Crop & Plant Stress – A Primer on Abiotic and Biotic Stressors
The natural conditions in which plants and trees grow are neither uniform nor controlled. Many changes or fluctuations, even if they are temporary, can have a negative impact on and stress plants. The factors which can lead to stress can be one of two types: abiotic or biotic. Stress can have serious repercussions on various phases of a plant’s growth and, ultimately, crop productivity. ...
