Soybean Leaf Chlorophyll Estimation and Iron Deficiency Field Rating Determination at Plot and Field Scales Through Image Processing and Machine Learning
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) is the most common reason for chlorosis in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) and causes an average yield loss of 120 million dollars per year across 1.8 million ha in the North Central US ...
Increased Oil Recovery from Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles and Whole Stillage
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Finding a viable method to recover oil from the corn ethanol industry's co-products has considerable economic prospects for ethanol bio-refineries. This study examined the effects of enzymes and ethanol on oil recovery ...
Optimization of Methane Yield in Solid-State Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Dairy Manure and Corn Stover
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Sole dependence on fossil fuel and the concomitant environmental concerns could be minimized through the optimization of green energy generation from the growing volume of onfarm organic wastes. In this mesophilic study, ...
Characterization of Biochar from Different Feedstocks under Low and High Temperature and Their Effects on Greenhouse Gas Emission and Ammonia Volatilazation from Soil Incubation
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Biochar is a potential soil amendment that likely to reduce GHG emissions from land application to soil, but their properties depend on biomass types and pyrolysis temperature. In this study, biochars were produced from ...
Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson) Identification Using Hyperspectral Imaging Technology
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Palmer amaranth is a troublesome weed in modern day agriculture. Timely identification, along with adoption of site-specific weed management practices, will enable farmers to reduce Palmer amaranth control costs and improve ...
