Presentation transcript:

 Several Sensor Based N Rate Calculations exist.  There are two distinct approaches to N rate calculations.  Use of Yield Prediction and Response  Use of Response only

 This Workshop  Will walk through the published Algorithms built by 5 institutions. All are used/available in Commercial systems.  We are not going to compare specific N rates applied.  We are going to look and the Metrics and Agronomics behind each.

 NDVI › Regardless of sensor is essentially a measure of biomass. › NDVI = (NIR-VIS)/(NIR+VIS)  Simple Ratio › SR = NIR/VIS  Red-edge: Chlorophyll measurement

 Response is thought of in two ways. › RI: Increase above standard pre-plant high/low >1  Increase in yield due to N  RI 1.2, Expect an increase in yield of 20% w/ N › SI: Percent of high level low/high <1.0  Sufficiency of standard practice  Typically uses a Base N rate  SI of.75, Expected N need 200 FP = 150  Can be calculated using NDVI or SR

Figure from Holland and Schepers: 2010 Agronomy Journal.

 Correlation between OSURI ndvi and RI Ratio

 A few of the groups have determined that the relationship RI of NDVI and RI of yield is not a 1 to 1 relationship.  Therefore some algorithms use adjusted RI based on research. Calculation differs across crops and environments (great plains vs east coast).

 What: A high rate of N applied in, across, through, over or under each and every field (NR).  How Much: Rate significantly higher than standard practice (Farmer Practice FP).  How and Where: 10 to 100 ft wide, anywhere representative.  Timing: Crop and Environment specific

 Used in Several areas and algorithms.

 OSU 1.64 * (NR/FP)  tOSU *((1-LN)/(1+LN))/(1-NR)/(1+NR))  VT NR/LN  OSU YPN*RI  tOSU 20*exp(-.06 *((1-FP)/(1+FP))*DFP)* 100*2.2/56/2.47*YP0  VT 3500*exp((FP*(NR/LN)/DFP

 Measurements from the greenest area of the field for N-Rich value  Used with SI on On-The-Go sensors. 

 OSU YPN*RI  tOSU 20*exp(-.06 *((1-FP)/(1+FP))*DFP)* 100*2.2/56/2.47*YP0  VT 3500*exp((FP*(NR/LN)/DFP

 Uses Yield Prediction and RI (OSU) in ex.  If (YP0*RI<YPNR, YP0*RI, YPNR)-YP0 *56lb/bu *.0125 %N /.60%NUE

 Uses Yield Prediction and RI(tOSU) LowN  Min: (YP0*RI, Max Yld) – YP0 *65*.0125/.60

 Uses Yield Prediction and RI(tOSU) LowN  Min {((.0125/.6)*(YPN-YP0)+100-PreN)), 168-PreN} 100=Sidedress Base Rate 168= Max N. 168-preN

 Sufficiency Index and Max N  Min ((Max N-SI)-Index Ceiling, Max N) › Max N Changes by stage V6-V7 & V8-V10 › Index Ceiling change by sensor and stage Min SI used in GS

 Uses SI and Optimum N Rate  Based on a Chlorophyll Meter Algo.  Min(317*SQRT(.97-SI), OptN)

 SI, Delta SI, Nopt  (OPTN-Npre-Ncred+Ncomp)* SQRT (1-SI)/(Delta SI *(1+.1*exp (backoff* (SIthreshold-SI) › Delta SI is.3+/-.1 or FP/RI › Backoff 0,10, 20, 50. controls N dec w/ dec SI  Adjust based on ability of crop to recover. › SI theshold.7
