description | Precision agriculture is a useful tool to assess plant growth and development
in vineyards. The present study focused on spatial and temporal analysis of
vegetation growth variability, in four irrigation treatments with four
replicates. The research was carried out in a vineyard located in the
southwest of Spain during the 2012 and 2013 growing seasons. Two
multispectral sensors mounted on an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) were used in
the different growing seasons/stages in order to calculate the vineyard
normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). Soil apparent electrical
conductivity (ECa) was also measured up to 0.8 m soil depth using an
on-the-go geophysical sensor. All measured data were analysed by means of
principal component analysis (PCA). The spatial and temporal NDVI and ECa
variations showed relevant differences between irrigation treatments and
climatological conditions. |
