  1. 6. Time series analysis for spring barley phenology monitoring using Sentinel 2 – A case study of Southern-central Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Pavlos Aslanis; [2020]
    Keywords : spring barley; crop phenology; crop growth stages; TIMESAT; double logistic; threshold optimization; Sentinel 2; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Monitoring crop phenology at parcel scale aligns with the concept of precision agriculture (PA) and can provide invaluable information to agronomic management systems. Satellite time series data are commonly deployed for detecting crop growth stages, while the recent advancements in remote sensing (RS) technologies such as the launch of Sentinel 2 (S2) are providing unprecedented opportunities for crop monitoring.

  3. 7. Intensively processed silage using Bio-extruder : effects on gas production and forage digestibility

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Emma Elgemark; [2019]
    Keywords : digestion rate; timothy; red clover; gas production; NDF digestibility; extruder Abstrac;

    Abstract : The dairy cow requires a high feed intake to maintain a high milk production and forage is a crucial component in dairy cows diet. Forage stimulates chewing activity and rumination which contributes to a normal and effective rumen function. READ MORE

  4. 8. Comparison of multi-temporal and multispectral Sentinel-2 and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle imagery for crop type mapping

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Stephania Zabala Ramos; [2017]
    Keywords : classification; Random Forest; precision agriculture; UAV; remote sensing; Micasense; GEM; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Precision Agriculture aims to maximize crop production and the efficiency of land use to meet the increased demand for food while minimizing environmental impact and economic cost of food production. Crop type maps are needed for Precision Agriculture applications and remote sensing techniques are an efficient way to produce this information. READ MORE

  5. 9. Whole crop barley silage and grass silage harvested at different stages of maturity : effects on feed intake, selection, digestibility and protein utilization in sheep

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Anna Magnusson; [2017]
    Keywords : evaluation; forage; nitrogen; wether;

    Abstract : I Sverige används gräsensilage och helsädesensilage från bland annat korn som vinterfoder i köttproduktion av både nötkreatur och lamm. Korn kan sås som skyddsgröda när vallar skall anläggas och att skörda kornet som helsädsensilage istället för vid tröskmognad får vallen mer ljus samtidigt som det blir vallskörd redan det första året.

  6. 10. Utsädesbehandling med mineralnäring för att förbättra uppkomst och tidig tillväxt hos vårraps

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Patrik Svanström; [2017]
    Keywords : betning; Brassica; jordloppor; mikronäring; odlingsåtgärder; oljeväxter; raps; temperatur; uppkomst; utsädesbehandling;

    Abstract : Oljeväxter är en gröda som bidrar positivt till den svenska växtodlingen genom att innebära varierade växtföljder för de svenska lantbrukarna. Detta ger stora möjligheter att reducera användningen av kemisk bekämpning och mekanisk bearbetning samt bidra till en bättre lönsamhet för det svenska jordbruket. READ MORE
