Precision farming Soil, Nutrition & Water Dr. ir. Sander H. van Delden (De. S) Lecturer HAS den Bosch Soil and fertilisation
What is precision agriculture ? Precision agriculture: ◦ Farm management with the goal of optimizing returns on inputs while preserving resources ◦ Crop science: match farming practices to crop needs (e. g. fertilizer inputs) ◦ Environmental protection: reducing environmental risks and footprint of farming (e. g. limiting leaching of nitrogen) ◦ Economics: more competitiveness, causes efficient (short term) practices (e. g. improved management of fertilizer usage and other inputs).
Measures of productivity and efficiency ? Input of resources system Output of products Productivity: [Product output / Resource input] Amount of product produced per unit resource input e. g. labour productivity [Resource output / Resource input] Efficiency: [ Output / Input ] ratio of particular resource, e. g. nitrogen, phosphorus, energy 3
Ingredients for precision agriculture Farm management with the goal of optimizing returns on inputs while preserving resources (Crop) science ◦ What are the needs of my crop ? (dose – response) ◦ What are the needs of my soil ? Environmental protection ◦ What are my limitation by mitigation (law) and long term damage to my system ? Economics ◦ What are my investment / costs ? ◦ What is the value of my product ? ◦ What is the return on investment (marginal productivity) ?
What are the needs of my crop ? Research on dose response Water Nutrients Soil Crop Ecology Climate Starting material
Measuring: Does my crop gets what it needs ◦ Lectures Toine Buijs ◦ Jan Ties Malda ◦ Ecology Rob Kerkmeester Does my soil provide what my crop needs? ◦ Meten is weten?
Meten is weten? (measuring knowing) What is the cause of stains? High fever Long in the sun After a skating Skin disease Anxiety Rage Blush . . . Picture PPO (2012)
Example: Potato field Cause of stains drought soil structure flooding nematodes N deficiency fertilization Errors diseases . . ? Picture PPO (2012)

Correlation and calibration
Measuring gamma Factors influencing gamma measurements: (irrespective of sensing system) Gamma influential factors Temperature of crystal Measurement height
From gamma to soil properties Which properties can be mapped? Soil texture; clay, loam, grain size Nutrients; Soil organic matter, Mg, p. H, Fe, K Depends on the size and scale of calibration dataset
From gamma to soil properties Regression analysis

What is the potential gain of precision farming and is this worth the investment……in time and equipment ?
