A DEMONSTRATION OF THE AMS SYSTEM
The following Summary Abstract is from a report to the United States Department of Agriculture Small Business Innovation Research Office, detailing the results of a three-month demonstration project, funded by a grant from the Federal government, that demonstrated the reliability and accuracy of the AMS remote sensing system on head lettuce crops in the Imperial Valley of California, near the town of Brawley, during the fall of 2001. The demonstration project was monitored and studied by three independent consultants: Ted K Bradshaw, a rural sociologist and economist, Charles Sanchez, Professor of Soil, Water, and Environmental Sciences and Director, Yuma Agricultural Center, and Robert Braun, AgroConsulting, Inc., an independent crop consultant. The three separate research articles were generated and submitted to the USDA in the final report. These are listed after the following Summary Abstract.
