Phosphorus-based variable rate manure application in wheat and barley
Manure is used as a source of nutrients and organic matter for agricultural lands, but its unbalanced use has unfortunately made nitrogen (N) and...
-
Management zone classification for variable-rate soil residual herbicide applications
The use of soil residual herbicides, along with other practices that diversify weed management strategies, have been recommended to improve weed...

Opportunities for variable rate application of nitrogen under spatial water variations in rainfed wheat systems—an economic analysis
In fields of undulating topography, where rainfed crops experience different degrees of water stress caused by spatial water variations, yields vary...
-
Within-field spatial variability and potential for profitability of variable rate applications
Since literature is not unanimous about profitability of variable rate application (VRA), a systematic analysis is essential to determine when, where...
