Development of a Proximal Soil Sensing System for the Continuous Management of Acid SoilViscarra Rossel, Raphael A January 2001 (has links)
The notion that agriculturally productive land may be treated as a relatively homogeneous resource at thewithin-field scale is not sound. This assumption and the subsequent uniform application of planting material,chemicals and/or tillage effort may result in zones within a field being under- or over-treated. Arising fromthese are problems associated with the inefficient use of input resources, economically significant yield losses,excessive energy costs, gaseous or percolatory release of chemicals into the environment, unacceptable long-term retention of chemicals and a less-than-optimal growing environment. The environmental impact of cropproduction systems is substantial. In this millennium, three important issues for scientists and agrariancommunities to address are the need to efficiently manage agricultural land for sustainable production, themaintenance of soil and water resources and the environmental quality of agricultural land.Precision agriculture (PA) aims to identify soil and crop attribute variability, and manage it in an accurate andtimely manner for near-optimal crop production. Unlike conventional agricultural management where anaveraged whole-field analytical result is employed for decision-making, management in PA is based on site-specific soil and crop information. That is, resource application and agronomic practices are matched withvariation in soil attributes and crop requirements across a field or management unit. Conceptually PA makeseconomic and environmental sense, optimising gross margins and minimising the environmental impact ofcrop production systems. Although the economic justification for PA can be readily calculated, concepts suchas environmental containment and the safety of agrochemicals in soil are more difficult to estimate. However,it may be argued that if PA lessens the overall agrochemical load in agricultural and non-agriculturalenvironments, then its value as a management system for agriculture increases substantially.Management using PA requires detailed information of the spatial and temporal variation in crop yieldcomponents, weeds, soil-borne pests and attributes of physical, chemical and biological soil fertility. However,detailed descriptions of fine scale variation in soil properties have always been difficult and costly to perform.Sensing and scanning technologies need to be developed to more efficiently and economically obtain accurateinformation on the extent and variability of soil attributes that affect crop growth and yield. The primary aimof this work is to conduct research towards the development of an �on-the-go� proximal soil pH and limerequirement sensing system for real-time continuous management of acid soil. It is divided into four sections.Section one consists of two chapters; the first describes global and historical events that converged into thedevelopment of precision agriculture, while chapter two provides reviews of statistical and geostatisticaltechniques that are used for the quantification of soil spatial variability and of topics that are integral to theconcept of precision agriculture. The review then focuses on technologies that are used for the completeenumeration of soil, namely remote and proximal sensing.Section two comprises three chapters that deal with sampling and mapping methods. Chapter three provides ageneral description of the environment in the experimental field. It provides descriptions of the field site,topography, soil condition at the time of sampling, and the spatial variability of surface soil chemicalproperties. It also described the methods of sampling and laboratory analyses. Chapter four discusses some ofthe implications of soil sampling on analytical results and presents a review that quantifies the accuracy,precision and cost of current laboratory techniques. The chapter also presents analytical results that show theloss of information in kriged maps of lime requirement resulting from decreases in sample size. The messageof chapter four is that the evolution of precision agriculture calls for the development of �on-the-go� proximalsoil sensing systems to characterise soil spatial variability rapidly, economically, accurately and in a timelymanner. Chapter five suggests that for sparsely sampled data the choice of spatial modelling and mappingtechniques is important for reliable results and accurate representations of field soil variability. It assesses anumber of geostatistical methodologies that may be used to model and map non-stationary soil data, in thisinstance soil pH and organic carbon. Intrinsic random functions of order k produced the most accurate andparsimonious predictions of all of the methods tested.Section three consists of two chapters whose theme pertains to sustainable and efficient management of acidagricultural soil. Chapter six discusses soil acidity, its causes, consequences and current management practices.It also reports the global extent of soil acidity and that which occurs in Australia. The chapter closes byproposing a real-time continuous management system for the management of acid soil. Chapter seven reportsresults from experiments conducted towards the development of an �on-the-go� proximal soil pH and limerequirement sensing system that may be used for the real-time continuous management of acid soil.Assessment of four potentiometric sensors showed that the pH Ion Sensitive Field Effect Transistor (ISFET)was most suitable for inclusion in the proposed sensing system. It is accurate and precise, drift and hysteresisare low, and most importantly it�s response time is small. A design for the analytical system was presentedbased on flow injection analysis (FIA) and sequential injection analysis (SIA) concepts. Two different modesof operation were described. Kinetic experiments were conducted to characterise soil:0.01M CaCl2 pH(pHCaCl2) and soil:lime requirement buffer (pHbuffer) reactions. Modelling of the pHbuffer reactions describedtheir sequential, biphasic nature. A statistical methodology was devised to predict pHbuffer measurements usingonly initial reaction measurements at 0.5s, 1s, 2s and 3s measurements. The accuracy of the technique was 0.1pHbuffer units and the bias was low. Finally, the chapter describes a framework for the development of aprototype soil pH and lime requirement sensing system and the creative design of the system.The final section relates to the management of acid soil by liming. Chapter eight describes the development ofempirical deterministic models for rapid predictions of lime requirement. The response surface models arebased on soil:lime incubations, pHbuffer measurements and the selection of target pH values. These models aremore accurate and more practical than more conventional techniques, and may be more suitably incorporatedinto the spatial decision-support system of the proposed real-time continuous system for the management ofacid soil. Chapter nine presents a glasshouse liming experiment that was used to authenticate the limerequirement model derived in the previous chapter. It also presents soil property interactions and soil-plantrelationships in acid and ameliorated soil, to compare the effects of no lime applications, single-rate andvariable-rate liming. Chapter X presents a methodology for modelling crop yields in the presence ofuncertainty. The local uncertainty about soil properties and the uncertainty about model parameters wereaccounted for by using indicator kriging and Latin Hypercube Sampling for the propagation of uncertaintiesthrough two regression functions; a yield response function and one that equates resultant pH after theapplication of lime. Under the assumptions and constraints of the analysis, single-rate liming was found to bethe best management option.

Mensuração direta do pH do solo em campo por meio de eletrodos íon-seletivos / On-the-go soil sensing for pH determination using ion-selective electrodesSilva, Fernanda Cristina de Souza 18 November 2013 (has links)
Um dos fatores mais limitantes da produtividade das culturas não somente no Brasil, mas em várias partes do mundo é a acidez do solo. Buscando-se a detecção automática da variação de elementos químicos do solo, além de velocidade e economia nas amostragens e análises, diversas técnicas de sensoriamento de solo têm sido estudadas. O presente trabalho estudou o desempenho de um conjunto sensor de íon seletivo de antimônio, para seus dois modos de funcionamento disponíveis, denominados de automático e manual, na determinação do potencial hidrogeniônico (pH) em tempo real em três áreas com solos de diferentes características físicas e químicas, as quais passaram por amostragem de solo em grade, com densidade de 4 amostras ha-1, tendo sido encaminhados a laboratório para a determinação do pH em água e cloreto de cálcio, os quais foram utilizados como referência. Sem intervenção do operador, seguindo-se configurações do fabricante, amostras foram coletadas em campo automaticamente. As amostras determinadas sob acionamento manual foram utilizadas para avaliações dos parâmetros de desempenho do conjunto, definidos como tempo, precisão e acurácia, por meio do cálculo da raiz quadrada do erro médio (RMSE). Um conjunto de amostras de solo foi utilizado na avaliação do grau de influência da umidade na determinação do pH. Diferentes retas de calibração utilizando os dados mensurados via sensoriamento e os valores obtidos em laboratório foram construídas, sendo uma delas elaborada especificamente por área e a outra abrangendo a totalidade de pontos numa reta universal. Por meio de análises geoestatísticas buscou-se definir e comparar a estrutura de dependência espacial dos dados com a construção de semivariogramas e ajuste do modelo para a variável em estudo. Os dados brutos coletados pelo sensor e os calibrados, juntamente àqueles com origem em laboratório foram utilizados na construção de mapas de superfície. Pontos de validação foram tomados para avaliar a qualidade das retas de calibração. As análises estatísticas apresentaram melhor resultado para o modo manual, porém, para ambos os modos de funcionamento foram verificados erros superiores aos determinados como limite, uma vez que as curvas de calibração não foram eficientes. O conjunto apresentou sensibilidade ao íon H+ para ambos os modos de acionamento, porém, verificou-se que a umidade do solo interferiu no resultado das leituras. Os parâmetros geoestatísticos mostraram que as amostragens atuais não exploram integralmente a variabilidade do pH das áreas, confirmando o potencial do sensoriamento em tempo real e a necessidade de aprimoramento dessas técnicas. Como primeiro passo sugere-se o acréscimo de um sensor de umidade ao conjunto e a utilização de ferramentas para padronização e homogeneização das amostras em campo. / One of the most limiting factors in crop not only in Brazil but in many parts of the world is soil acidity. Aiming to automatic detection of changes in soil chemical elements, as well as speed and economy in the sampling and analysis, various sensing techniques of soil have been studied. The present work studied the performance of a set of sensor selective ion antimony to its two available operating modes, automatic and manual called, in determining the hydrogen potential (pH) in real time on three areas with different soil physical characteristics and chemical, which passed soil sampling grid at a density of 4 samples ha-1 and was sent to the laboratory for the determination of the pH and calcium chloride, which were used as reference. Without operator intervention, following the manufacturer settings, samples were collected in the field automatically. The samples under certain manual actuation were used for evaluation of the performance parameters of the set, defined as time precision and accuracy by calculating the root mean square error (RMSE). A set of soil samples was used to assess the degree of influence of moisture in the pH determining. Different straight calibration using the measured data via sensing and the values obtained in the laboratory were built, one being designed specifically for the area and the other covering the whole of points on a straight universal. Through geostatistical analyzes sought to define and compare the spatial dependence structure of the data with the construction of semi-variograms and model fit for the variable under study. The raw data collected by the sensor and the calibrated along with those originated in the laboratory were used to make surface maps. Validation points were taken to assess the quality of the calibration straight. Statistical analysis showed better results for the manual mode, however, for both operation modes were checked for errors upper limit as determined, since calibration curves are not effective. The set had a sensitivity to the H+ ion for both activation modes, however, it was found that soil moisture affected the outcome of the readings. The geostatistical parameters showed that the samples do not exploit fully the current pH variability areas, confirming the potential of real-time sensing and the need for improvement of these techniques. Initially we suggest the addition of a humidity sensor and use of tools for standardization and homogenization of samples in the field.

Characterisation of selected soil properties using remote sensing techniquesFisha, Phuti Cedric January 2019 (has links)
Thesis (M. Sc. (Soil Science)) --University of Limpopo, 2019 / Many conventional laboratory methods are used to characterise spatial and temporal variation of soil properties in order to understand soil quality for different purposes. Currently there is a high demand for accurate soil information by land users. Therefore there is a need to develop a rapid, inexpensive, non-destructive and accurate technique that could compensate or replace conventional laboratory methodologies. Remote sensing has the potential to serve as an alternative approach to characterise soil properties due to its advantages over conventional laboratory methods such as it is rapid, non-destructive and it has low cost. The objectives of this study were to: (i) evaluate the ability of proximal soil sensing to characterise soil properties namely organic matter, soil moisture content, macronutrients, soil texture, cation exchange capacity (CEC), and pH. (ii) Identify bands of relevance from proximal soil sensing (300-2400 nm) that can provide acceptable reflectance variation for different levels of selected soil properties. (iii) Evaluate the performance of models developed from multispectral space-borne image in characterising selected soil properties. In this study spectroradiometer (proximal sensor) and worldview 2 satellite images (space-borne) were the two remote sensing techniques used to collect information about soil at Syferkuil experimental farm of the University of Limpopo. Visible and near infrared spectral data of 98 soil samples were collected at the study site using Analytical spectral device (ASD) field spectroradiometer. Spectral reflectance from spectroradiometer and those extracted from worldview 2 satellite image were used to develop prediction models of selected soil properties using Partial least square regression (PLSR). Bands of relevance were also identified from PLSR models developed from spectral data acquired by spectroradiometer. The results showed that estimation accuracy of PLSR models developed using spectral data from proximal soil sensing were excellent (Category A) for clay, sand, soil organic matter (SOM), and soil moisture content, while good prediction accuracy (Category B) was observed for other soil properties such as silt, ammonium, nitrate, active acidity (pHw), calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sulphur, CEC, and reserve acidity (pHKCl). Then, relevant bands which contributed greatly in the prediction of these soil attributes were selected from the electromagnetic spectrum, the range was from 451 nm to 2400 nm. These bands fall within visible, shortwave infrared and near-infrared
x
regions of electromagnetic spectrum. In addition all selected soil properties were approximately quantitatively estimated using spectral data from satellite image. Based on the results obtained it can be concluded that proximal soil sensing has the ability to predict selected soil properties with various accuracies and it can be used as an alternative technique to characterise soil properties of South African soils. Soil predicting models developed from proximal soil sensing data also showed that there are bands of relevance within spectral range of 451 nm to 2400 nm. However more work is required for space-borne sensing before it can be used as one of the soil characterisation methods since its prediction accuracy was low as compared to that of hyperspectral proximal soil sensing.
Keywords: Space-borne sensing; proximal soil sensing; soil characterisation.

Development of plough-able RFID sensor network systems for precision agricultureWang, Chuan January 2016 (has links)
There is a growing interest in employing sub-soil sensing systems to support precision agriculture. This thesis presents the design of an RFID sub-soil sensing system which is based on integrating passive RFID technology and sub-soil sensing technology. The proposed RFID sub-soil system comprises of an above-ground RFID reader and a number of RFID sub-soil sensor nodes. The key feature of the system is that the sensor nodes do not require an on-board battery, as they are capable of harvesting energy from the ElectroMagnetic (EM) field generated by the RFID reader. The sensor nodes then transmit sensor measurements to the reader wirelessly through soil. With the proposed RFID sub-soil system, the high path loss of the sub-soil wireless channel is a significant problem which leads to the challenge for the system to achieve an acceptable Quality of Service (QoS). In this project, the path loss in soil has been characterised through CST simulations. In the simulations, the effect of the soil on the sensor node antenna has also been investigated. This thesis also presents the design and implementation of a programmable RFID reader platform and an embedded RFID sensor node prototype. The RFID reader platform is implemented using a National Instruments (NI) PXI system, and it is configured and controlled by NI LabVIEW software. The sensor node prototype is capable of harvesting RF energy and transmitting sensor measurements from a temperature sensor through backscatter communication. A series of sub-soil experiments have been carried out to evaluate the performance of the RFID sensor node prototype using the PXI-based RFID reader platform. The experimental results are presented and analysed in this thesis. Additionally, this work has explored trade-offs in the system design, and these design trade-offs are summarised and described.
