January 1985 - June 1993 Quick Bibliography Series: QB 93-62 255 citations from AGRICOLA Bonnie Emmert and Joe Makuch Water Quality Information Center August 1993 Quick Bibliography Series Bibliographies in the Quick Bibliography series of the National Agricultural Library (NAL), are intended primarily for current awareness, and as the title of the series implies, are not in-depth and exhaustive. However, the citations are a substantial resource for recent investigations on a given topic. They also serve the purpose of bringing the literature of agriculture to the interested user who, in many cases, could not access it by any other means. The bibliographies are derived from online searches of the AGRICOLA database. Timeliness of topic and evidence of extensive interest are the selection criteria. Send suggestions for Quick Bibliography topics to wqic@ars.usda.gov The author/searcher determines the purpose, length, and search strategy of the Quick Bibliography. Information regarding these is available from the author/searcher. The inclusion or omission of a particular publication or citation should not be construed as endorsement or disapproval. An author and subject index is provided along with the search strategy.

Halliday, S.L.; Wolfe, M.L. Bethesda, Md. : American Water Resources Association. Water resources bulletin v. 27 (2): p. 237-245; 1991 Mar. Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Texas; Groundwater pollution; Nitrogen fertilizers; Pollutants; Susceptibility; Expert systems Abstract: A geographic information system (GRASS 3.1) was used to correlate the availability of nitrogen fertilizer with the susceptibility of ground water to pollution in Texas to identify potential ground water quality problems. An agricultural pollution susceptibility map, produced by the Texas Water Commission using the DRASTIC methodology, was combined with information on cropped areas, recommended nitrogen fertilizer application rates, and aquifer outcrops. A Nitrogen Fertilizer Pollution Potential Index was generated, identifying 24 percent or Texas within the high pollution potential category. An analysis of the susceptibility of major aquifer outcrops to potential pollution from nitrogen fertilizer indicated that 34 percent of the outcrop areas fall in the high pollution potential range. It is proposed that correlating the availability of a pollutant with an assessment of the susceptibility of ground water to pollution yields a more accurate screening tool for identifying potential pollution problems than considering susceptibility alone. 19 NAL Call No: QA76.76.E95A5 Assessing pesticide risk to arthropod natural enemies using expert system technology.

Language: English Descriptors: Zea mays; Glycine max; Production; Tillage; Computer software; Expert systems Abstract: Development of a regionally-specific expert system to estimate corn/soybean production on an individual-field and whole-farm basis is described. Rules and equations to project yield as a function of tillage system, crop rotation, latitude, soil series, and soybean row spacing and maturity group were derived from interviews with three experts. The resulting knowledge was encoded into computer logic written entirely in C-language. Although very small, the program retains the functionality of expert systems developed in shells. On-line explanations are available to explain why each input is requested. Help screens offer expanded explanation of each question. Conclusions are displayed as they are reached. Management suggestions are offered where appropriate, including recommending a conservation tillage system, flagging highly erodible fields, indicating erosion control measures, suggesting that a field be tilled as two separate fields, and warning against farming steep slopes in row crops. The program goes beyond the features offered by some shells, permitting the user to back up in the program, to execute UNIX or DOS commands from within the program, and to store a partial run in a disk file to be resumed later. The program has been released as Public Domain software, with over 300 copies

Language: English Descriptors: Aerial spraying; Crop damage; Drift; Expert systems; Herbicides; Pesticidal action; Simulation models Abstract: An expert system for aerial spray drift and possible crop damage has been developed and tested. The user supplies 21 pieces of information regarding such things as the atomizer type, aircraft speed, meteorological conditions, type and amount of pesticide and the crop and its growth stage. The expert system calculates the expected drift deposit and the corresponding upper 95% confidence limit for a given downwind distance. The program also calculates the volumetric application rate and provides the user with a statement indicating whether or not a given application is likely to cause drift damage at the specified site. Nine of the 14 verification simulations yielded predicted drift deposits which were within +/- 3 fold of the reported drift deposits. The largest ratio between predicted/reported drift deposits was 3.79 and the smallest ratio was 0.215. 114 NAL Call No: FICHE S-72 An expert system for animal waste management.

Language: English Descriptors: Gossypium hirsutum; Crop production; Plant physiology; Phenology; Equations; Computer simulation; Simulation models; Growth models Abstract: The GOSSYM/COMAX system, a decision aid for cotton crop management, has been tested over the last five years on research and commercial farms across the cotton belt of the United States. GOSSYM simulates the major biotic and abiotic processes which influence growth, development and yield of cotton. Phenological and physiological rate equations derived from Soil-Plant-Atmosphere-Research (SPAR) experimental databases are crucial to the model development process. COMAX is an expert system environment that provides data management and a user friendly interface to GOSSYM. GOSSYM/COMAX is more properly called a model-based-reasoning system rather than an expert system. This is due primarily to COMAX's use of rules

to control its operation while the important knowledge about cotton resides in GOSSYM. The rules used by COMAX contain the expert knowledge of the model builders on how to use GOSSYM and how to interpret the model results. The belt-wide farm management test has provided useful information on designing an enhanced user interface and developing improved rules to optimize management inputs. 135 NAL Call No: 57.8 SO4 Fertilizer 'expert' available, personal computer wanted].

Language: English Descriptors: Glycine max; Weed control; Chemical control; Decision making; Economic thresholds; Herbicides; Computer software; Microcomputers; Crop yield; Yield losses; Crop weed competition; Returns Abstract: To efficiently use postemergence herbicides, decision makers must determine when weed populations exceed economic treatment thresholds. An interactive microcomputer program named HERB has been developed to help evaluate potential crop damage from multi- species weed complexes in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] and determine the appropriate course of action. Seventy-six weed species were rated on a scale of zero to 10 according to their competitiveness with soybean. Potential yield loss is estimated from these rankings, the number of weeds of each species present in the field, and expected weed-free yield. The recommendation whether to apply a herbicide and, if so, which one, is based on herbicide cost and efficacies under different conditions and expected soybean selling price. Alternative herbicide choices are ranked according to expected

net return. HERB is intended to provide the latest research information in an organized and easily usable format. The approach should be applicable to other crops and pests. 145 NAL Call No: S494.5.D3C652 HERBICIDE ADVISOR: a decision support system to optimise atrazine and chlorsulfuron activity and crop safety.

Transactions of the ASAE v. 33 (4): p. 1371-1376; 1990 Jul. Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Erosion; Simulation models; Expert systems Abstract: A knowledge engineering tool, MKSMART (Multiple Knowledge Source Management And Reasoning Tool), was developed for building applications that use a blackboard architecture. MKSMART is useful for applications such as constructing knowledge-based decision support systems that use multiple knowledge sources, developing blackboard-like systems, and constructing systems that require the coupling of numeric and symbolic reasoning. To demonstrate MKSMART's capabilities, a decision support program for estimating soil erosion losses was developed. The advantages over traditional modeling techniques include use of the optimal knowledge representation and reasoning paradigm, integration of diverse types of knowledge, and modular program structure. 159 NAL Call No: FICHE S-72 Integrating water resource tools: process models, geographic information systems and expert systems.

Language: English Descriptors: Watershed management; Streams; Modification; Expert systems; Erosion control; Flood control Abstract: A knowledge-based, microcomputer software package was developed for preliminary selection of environmental features for use with streambank protection projects, straightened and enlarged channels, and flood control levees. The system contains a module for each of the three major alteration types: bank protection, levees, and channels. Each module queries the user for information regarding environmental factors to be protected and a description of the project setting, with the internal logic configured to minimize the number of questions asked. System output consists of a list of environmental design features suitable for the specific location and descriptive information. Help screens explain why certain questions are asked, define terms, and suggest responses or sources of information. At the conclusion of a consultation, additional help screens may be displayed that provide a discussion of each recommended feature, a list of existing projects that incorporate the feature, and a bibliography. The streambank protection module screens a master list of 20 methods based on the dominant erosion mechanisms operative at the project site, and the channel module performs a rough channel stability assessment using regime equations. The latest version of the software aids in feature selection, but does not design channel alterations. However, the software interfaces with routines that perform basic hydraulic computations (e.g., composite roughness, normal depth, riprap size) for steady flow in order to allow users to quickly evaluate feasibility of in-channel environmental features. A survey of users indicated that the package has been used by entry-level and experienced professionals to perform a limited range of specialized tasks. Seventy-four percent of the users described the software as a useful instrument for planning and preliminary design. 172 NAL Call No: 275.8 AG8 Landscaping with microcomputers.

Language: English Descriptors: Zea mays; Crop management; Support systems; Decision making; Computer techniques Abstract: A decision support system was developed to assist county agents, consultants, and farmers with the management of field corn (maize). The program includes production and post- harvest recommendations. Management recommendations in the production season section are primarily based on several experts' experience and knowledge. A combination of knowledge- based approaches and numerical optimization techniques are used in the post-harvest section for identifying and evaluating potential storage sites stored grain insect diagnosis and control, and optimal bin number and size for high- and low-temperature grain drying. The program is currently being used in the field by crop management association technicians and extension personnel who assist farmers with management decisions. 174 NAL Call No: 290.9 AM32T Malting barley water and nutrient management knowledge-based system.

Language: English Descriptors: Hordeum vulgare; Malting barley; Crop management; Expert systems; Irrigation water; Nitrogen fertilizers; Phosphorus fertilizers Abstract: A knowledge- based system for malting barley management was developed. The system gives advice on fertilizer and water applications to

maximize crop yield under strict quality constraints. An uncertainty handling routine based on fuzzy set theory was implemented to resolve conflicts between two sources of evidence on which the decisions are based. Initial testing of the fertilizer module revealed disagreement between the knowledge-based system recommendation and field agronomists' recommendations. However, in many cases the knowledge-based system recommendation was more reliable than the human expert. 175 NAL Call No: TD427.N5M3 Management systems on personal computer and videotex to reduce impacts of nitrates.
