1. Introducing Precision Agriculture To High School Students In Australia

There is a growing need for tertiary qualified graduates in the Australian agricultural industry with only 7% of those employed in the sector holding a tertiary qualification compared to over 25% for the national workforce. With the need to greatly increase food and fibre production to feed and clothe a growing global population, and the adoption of precision agriculture technologies playing a huge part in this task, it is worrying that the demand for tertiary courses in agriculture in Australia...

2. Using A Decision Tree To Predict The Population Density Of Redheaded Cockchafer (Adoryphorus Couloni) In Dairy Fields

A native soil dwelling insect pest, the redheaded cockchafer (Adoryphorus couloni) (Burmeister) (RHC) is an important pest in the higher rainfall regions of south-eastern Australia. Due to the majority of its lifecycle spent underground feeding on the roots and soil organic matter the redheaded cockchafer is difficult to detect and control. The ability to predict the level of infestation and location of redheaded cockchafers in a field may give producers the option to use an endophyte containing... A. Cosby, G. Falzon, M. Trotter, J.

3. SMARTfarm Learning Hub: Next Generation Precision Agriculture Technologies for Agricultural Education

The industry demands on higher education agricultural students are rapidly changing. New precision agriculture technologies are revolutionizing the farming industry but the education sector is failing to keep pace. This paper reports on the development of a key resource, the SMARTfarm Learning Hub (www.smartfarmhub.com) that will increase the skill base of higher education students using a range of new agricultural technologies and innovations. The Hub is a world first; it links real industry... M. Trotter, S. Gregory, T. Trotter, T. Acuna, D. Swain, W. Fasso, J. Roberts, A. Zikan, A. Cosby
