Detecting estrus in sows using a robotic imaging system and neural networks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
The global demand for pork products is expected to grow further with the growth of the population. Traditional swine farming presents disadvantages such as low breeding efficiency and high labor cost. Estrus detection is ...
Modeling the influence of climate and management practices on water quality in Goodwater Creek experimental watershed
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The objective of this study was to determine relationships among weather, runoff, water quality, and best management practice (BMP) implementation in reducing atrazine losses in the 7,250-ha Goodwater Creek Experimental Watershed in NE Missouri...
Ion-selective electrodes for simultaneous real-time analysis for soil macronutrients
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Automated sensing of soil macronutrients (i.e., N, P, and K) would allow more efficient mapping of soil nutrient variability for variable-rate nutrient management. This study reports on the development of a sensor array ...
