1. Apparent Electrical Conductivity Calibration In Semiarid Soils: Ion-pair CorrectionThe electromagnetic induction sensor (EM38DD) is a field proven portable sensor for rapid measurement of the apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) of soils. Calibration with the electrical conductivity of saturation paste extracts is the most widely used method to correlate ECa with the effective electrical conductivity (ECe). A drawback of this method is the formation of ion pairs in the high ionic strength saturated paste extracts, which effectively decreases the measured ECe, leading to the... X. Amakor, A.R.

2. Precision Agriculture Techniques for Crop Management in Trinidad and Tobago: Methodology & Field LayoutAgriculture in Trinidad and Tobago has not advanced at the same rate at which new agricultural technology has been released. This has led to large-scale abandonment of crop lands as challenges posed by labor availability and their agronomic capability could not meet the technological demands for agricultural production, competitiveness and sustainability. There is an urgent need to develop technology-based agriculture models to meet the demands of a modern agricultural sector and to maintain its... G. Seepersad, T. Sampson, S. Seepersad, D. Goorahoo |
