Agribots, UAVs possible solutions to a number of farming challenges

An unmanned helicopter soars over cotton fields. A robotic arm attached to a tractor moves to a tree and pulls fruit down. A farmer wakes up, glances at a computer printout and walks a specific row of peanuts, looking for the plant that her agribot sprayed the previous night after learning it was infested with pests.
It's not the opening scene of a Syfy TV movie. It's a look at the future of precision agriculture.
"Right now, ag is undergoing a unique transformation. It's kind of a convergence of factors making this happen, but it is definitely happening," said Gary McMurry, division chief for Georgia Tech Research Institute's food processing technology division. "There's start-up companies in California that are getting ... funding to build robots to do lettuce harvesting, to do de-weeding of crops. The cost of these systems has gone down dramatically. The capabilities ... have absolutely soared."
Researchers at Georgia Tech, University of Georgia and the Centers of Innovation for Aerospace and Agribusiness are hard at work developing ideas geared toward harvesting and early disease and pest detection.
One project, a partnership between the centers, Guided Systems Technologies, Middle Georgia State College and UGA, will develop uses for unmanned aerial vehicles in agriculture. Because the Federal Aviation Administration does not have rules in place to allow commercial companies to fly UAVs yet, only public entities can fly the vehicles for research and development purposes.
"The other half of the project, and that's really with agribusiness and our UGA researchers, is once you have this imagery, how do you

Georgians go back to roots with farmland edition

By Dallas Duncan
In 2008, Suzy Brown of Lawrenceville, Ga., became a farm owner after going through the farmland for sale ads in the Market Bulletin.
Brown bought her farm with plans to move there when she retired. Her father, a builder, once told her "they're not making any more land."
"After living in a subdivision on a little quarter-acre lot where you can hear your neighbor having a conversation next door, I said I need a little more land," Brown said. "When I first started looking at property, I thought, well, maybe four or five acres is good. I found some in the Bulletin and went and looked at it. ... The more I looked I realized what I needed."
The farm she purchased in Elberton, Ga., is about 15 acres with a natural spring and creek. Five acres are hardwoods and the rest is open pasture. It came already fenced and cross-fenced and even had

livestock handling equipment on the premises. That was a great boon

for Brown, who has Black Angus and two donkeys on the property.

"We have three heifers. We've gone through a couple of cows and

have sold them off to market and started fresh with three heifers," she

said. "They've had a bull visiting them for about a month so hopefully

they're pregnant."

In addition to the small cattle operation, Brown and her family visit

the farm twice a week and stay in their camper. They're cultivating the

bottom pasture into a garden, which the previous owners had as well.

Though her parents were raised on a farm, it took Brown until her

adult life to realize that's what she wanted to live on.

"They grew up on the farm, left and went to the city and never

looked back," she said. "I think as a child I always had a little garden,

and it was nice to be able to go out and pick some lettuce and cucum-

bers and make a salad. That always stuck with me that I liked doing

that."

GEORGIA GROWN PROFILE: Ivy Mountain Distillery
Family recipes, home-ground corn staples of whiskey establishment

By Morgan Smith
Ivy Mountain Distillery has been in the whiskey making business for more than 20 years. After illegally making liquor decades ago, Carlos Lovell, part owner of Ivy Mountain Distillery in Mt. Airy, Ga., decided he wanted to legally make whiskey two years ago. He enlisted the help of his daughter and fellow owner, Carlene Holder, to help him start his business and acquire the federal, state and local licenses needed.
Ivy Mountain Distillery is a family business through and through, and is continually growing. Having been in operation fewer than two years, the distillery has already undergone an expansion.
"Carlos and his brother Fred continue to grind their own corn and make the malt. It's definitely not a common practice today for distilleries to make [the malt] from scratch," Holder said.
Ivy Mountain prides itself in its history and old-fashioned beginnings. The recipe for the whiskey is decades old. Lovell uses his father

Big Virg Lovell's recipe for his fine "sippin' whiskey." All products that go into Lovell's whiskey are locally grown. With
an interest in the farm-to-table movement, Ivy Mountain Distillery believes it's important to let customers know where the ingredients for the whiskey come from.
"Consumers wish to know where their food originates. They are interested in the `natural way.'A visit to the distillery will confirm that Ivy Mountain is part of that thinking as well," Holder said.
The distillery is open to the public for tours twice a month, allowing consumers to get a firsthand look at how the product is made.
Even during the years of making illegal liquor, the Lovells were farmers with large crops, poultry and cattle.
"The agriculture industry in Georgia has always been of extreme importance to the Lovell family," Holder said. "Ivy Mountain Distillery is proud to be associated with Georgia Grown. All members of Georgia Grown have a common goal: to promote the natural resources of this great state."

FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN

TAKE 5: Becoming Georgia Grown

1. How is the new and improved Georgia Grown program coming along?
The Georgia Grown program is growing at a riveting pace. Since the revitalized program began in January 2012, we received more than 250 paying members, 700 website listings and several major retail, restaurant and corporate partnerships. We launched the inaugural Georgia Grown Magazine, hosted the first annual Georgia Grown Symposium and produced eight farmer showcases across the state.

2. How does the Georgia Grown logo add value to products?
Our revamped Georgia Grown logo was designed to identify products grown or produced in Georgia. We hope consumers become familiar with the logo and the quality it represents. Consumers look to purchase locally grown products and are willing to pay more for agricultural items produced by their community. However, consumers are often unable to identify locally grown products when grocery shopping. A shopper may want Georgia-grown blueberries, but if blueberries are not identified as being local, the shopper cannot make an informed purchasing decision.

KULINSKI

3. Who are the members featured in the Market Bulletin each issue? These are proud Georgia Grown members that joined at the gold level or higher. In order

to raise revenue for Georgia Grown and provide a high level of service to our members, the

program charges membership fees at multiple levels. You can receive a basic membership, which gives you full rights to use

the logo on all of your Georgia-grown products, for only $100 a year. With higher levels of membership you can receive a

professionally designed advertising package, an ad in Georgia Grown Magazine, sponsorship of special events and a profile

featuring your farm or company in the Market Bulletin and the Georgia Grown e-newsletter.

4. Tell us about the new Georgia Grown building at the Georgia National Fairgrounds.
The Department is excited to premiere the Georgia Grown Building at the Georgia National Fair in Perry this October. The purpose of the building is to gather agriculture-related products and businesses from Georgia into one location to promote agriculture and educate the public about the products available from Georgia. The building will have exciting exhibits and a Georgia Grown pavilion where visitors can purchase wonderful products made right here in Georgia.

5. Other than using the logo, how can farms and agribusinesses promote their Georgia Grown membership?
The Georgia Grown program hosts events throughout the year. Participating is a great way to raise awareness of your Georgia Grown products. If you are a small company or producer, farmers markets are great to get the word out about your products and increase sales. If you are a large company, you can raise your Georgia Grown profile by advertising in the magazine and including the logo in your website and media promotions.
Matthew Kulinski is the deputy director of marketing for the Georgia Department of Agriculture.

GUEST COLUMN: September is National Honey Month!

September is significant for honey

producers as it is the month that

marks the end of the honey collection

season for many beekeepers in the

United States. Its purpose is to pro-

mote the beekeeping industry, the art

of beekeeping and honey as a natural

and medicinal sweetener. Let us pay

homage to the Honeybee, one of

GIDDENS

Earth's most magnificent creatures! Why should I choose local honey?

First of all, buying local honey helps the local economy

in bigger ways than you might think. About one-third of the

food in an average grocery store, especially the produce,

depends on honey bees to pollinate and grow. Also, much

of the honey found on the shelf at your local grocery store

has been diluted with additives such as corn or rice syrup,

or imported from countries that do not have the same

regulations we have in the United States. According to

Food Safety News, most of the honey sold in the US is

imported and may be tainted with hard metals, chemicals

or antibiotics that are not considered safe for consumption

by the Food and Drug Administration. Many of the biggest

and oldest honey distributors in the US are knowingly

buying mislabeled or possibly altered honey so they can

sell it cheaper than those companies that demand safety,

quality and rigorously inspected honey. Buying local honey

ensures your family gets pure, unadulterated honey and also

bolsters local agriculture and commerce.

I founded Atlanta Honey Company back in March 2011,

but its origins go back years before and a few original hives

on the plot of the my family's vacation home in Dahlonega,

Ga.; the site of the first major gold rush in the USA. My

mother Jeannie Giddens has always harbored a unique

love for all things living, from the family dogs to the house

spider she gingerly carried back outside. So when a family

friend asked if he could house his honeybees' hives on our

land, our family was glad to accept. Over the following months, my father Bill Giddens and
my brother Todd Giddens learned more about beekeeping and took a bigger role in the oversight of the hives and honey production. It was not long until I decided to expand the outfit so everyone not just our friends and family could taste our pure, local honey and indulge in its beautiful, rich and healthy qualities. The honey produced and distributed by Atlanta Honey Company is 100 percent pure natural honey. Our delicate procedure of extraction only lightly strains the honey to remove unwanted debris prior to packaging. This is my "Dahlonega Gold" and I want people to know what real, raw honey should taste like. It puts a smile on my face to hear my customers say that our honey reminds them of the honey they had enjoyed growing up. One-hundred percent pure all-natural honey. No preservatives. No additives. No joke.
Today, our family business, Atlanta Honey Company, has hives all across north Georgia, from our original colony in Dahlonega to Suches the valley above the clouds, and even as far as the pristine Lake Rabun. Our hives' rural locations give us the purest and most flavorful honey bees can create. My love for food, local business, and great people has influenced me to take the family company to new highs. I recently won the 2013 Flavor of Georgia with our award-winning Hotlanta Honey Honey with a Sting. Our new spicy honey has been a success at great festivals such as Taste of Atlanta, Atlanta BBQ Festival, Music Midtown and is readily available to all our great supporters in the greater Atlanta area. I have a passion for bees and everything that they make possible. My job is to spread the art of beekeeping and educate by making it fun and exciting. In a fast paced economy I want to promote local business in the USA. This business journey has given me the opportunity to reach out and meet some truly great people.
Grant D. Giddens is the founder and beekeeper of At-
lanta Honey Company.

agriCULTURE
By Dallas Duncan
School is back in session! That means there are plenty of agriculture teachable moments coming up, dealing with nutrition, gardening and more.
A good portion of kids is going to eat at least one meal at school every day, whether that's breakfast (or for some especially hungry students, second breakfast) or lunch, and they're probably going to eat a snack, too. But for the days when nothing on the menu sounds like it's going to fit your child's picky palate, there's a good chance making lunch falls to the parent, grandparent or other guardian.
This is the perfect opportunity to get kids involved in the kitchen, teach where their food comes from and how to cook it! To inspire your family, we've got three easyto-make, kid-friendly snacks in this issue that are perfect for little hands to handle, but are also quick bites to grab for college kids who overslept and need food before that 8 a.m. chemistry class. One highlights veggies, one fruits and one meat, and each are packed full of carbohydrates and proteins portioned to be part of a balanced diet.
When you're making food with your kids, talk about where the ingredients came from. If those apples came from the grocery store shelves, talk about how they grew on a tree in an apple orchard before they were picked, for example.
If you're a teacher and you have the ability to make snacks in the classroom, Georgia has a number of commodity commissions, poultry, crop and livestock associations that are great resources for food, nutrition and agriculture facts. When your class is eating veggie snacks, you can talk about how tomatoes, carrots and other such produce is grown in Georgia. And to bring agriculture truly into your classroom, ask your principal or county board of education about starting a school garden to grow fruits and vegetables students can turn into snacks.
Another teachable moment comes by way of field trips. Let's be honest: what student (or 24-year-old reporter) doesn't love a field trip? You get out of class for a few hours and you're secretly learning things! And if there's anything I've come back with from the many trade shows and events I've had the privilege of attending, it's that these teachable moments are priceless: the expression of a young girl's face when she gets to hold cotton seeds; excited kids at the Mobile Dairy Classroom watching a Holstein get milked for the first time; a fourth-grader learning how to rope a steer; college students bringing friends to pick and plant in the community garden.
With fall coming up later this month, there are a number of season-specific trips classes and families can take. Corn mazes litter the landscape; pumpkin patches can be found in front of schools, churches and farms; not to mention opportunities arising with trips to the Sunbelt Agricultural Exposition in Moultrie, Ga., and the Georgia National Fair in Perry (both of which are in October).
Contact your local chamber of commerce or Farm Bureau to see if there are any farms, dairies or other agritourism operations in the area that field trips can be scheduled to. And producers last issue I touched on how we should make it a priority to interact more with consumers. If you'd like to host school groups on your farm, contact these same organizations as well as the Department's agritourism director to make sure you're getting on these lists!

ARTY'S GARDEN:

LAND: Family farms bought

Remember to plant rosemary

I'm glad that rosemary escaped the cloisters of the herb garden and is beginning to be planted in all parts of the landscape. It is being used in perennial gardens and with, or instead of, traditional foundation shrubs. I have even seen it thriving in sidewalk strips where few plants flourish.
Yes, rosemary is a useful culinary herb. It is especially good with chicken, and I have used it to make rosemary biscuits. However, even if you never go near the kitchen, rosemary is still worth planting in your garden. It is attractive, fragrant, drought tolerant, pest free and has a long season of bloom.
My rosemary starts blooming in early August and continues sporadically through fall and winter into March, with the majority of its periwinkle blue flowers appearing in the spring. Most rosemary varieties are blue, but there are a few with white or pinkish flowers.
A legend says that all rosemary flowers were white until the Virgin Mary draped her blue cloak across a rosemary plant during the flight into Egypt to escape Herod. Although a legend, it has some basis in fact: people will drape wet laundry across rosemary bushes to dry. The bushes keep the laundry off the ground and give it a pleasant scent. Willa Cather fans may remember the passage from O Pioneers! in which Marie tells Alexandra, "How nice your dress smells, Alexandra; you put rosemary leaves in your chest, like I told you."
People are still delighting in the scent of rosemary today. Rosemary is best planted in a convenient place where people can touch it and enjoy the fragrance it imparts as they pass by. I have mine planted by the

front steps. This long-lasting fragrance may be why rosemary
is known as the herb of remembrance, as Ophelia reminds us in her mad scene in Hamlet. Few things
trigger memory as does an aroma, and the long-lasting aroma of rosemary can trigger memories of home-cooked meals, Christmas decorating (rosemary is an excellent choice for greenery) or old-fashioned sachets.
Georgia garden centers, especially those with large herb selections, offer numerous varieties of rosemary including a prostrate form that cascades over walls. Rosemary can be planted any time of year, but spring and fall are best. Rosemary prefers limy, well-drained, even stony soil and lots of sun. Remember, it is native to the cliffs of the Mediterranean; try to make it feel at home.
Older rosemary plants take on a venerable appearance with gnarled, woody trunks. This characteristic makes them good focal points for a rock garden or garden path or even a good subject for bonsai.
When landscaping, don't forget to consider rosemary. Although a useful herb, it is not just for herb gardens anymore. In the words of Shakespeare's Ophelia, "There's rosemary, that's for remembrance; pray, love, remember."

plants and gardening.

from `Bulletin'
From Page 1
Whereas Brown bought her farmland as a place to retire too, Donald Shelnutt of Stockbridge, Ga., inherited his father's retirement farm purchased out of the Market Bulletin in the 1980s.
When the Shelnutts bought the farm in Gay, Ga., it had soybeans on it, so it really couldn't be used for the first six months, he said. Then they raised cattle on it and today, it's been converted into a pine tree farm: a place the generations of Shelnutts can take their children to enjoy.
"[My daddy] had always wanted to plant pine trees on it," Shelnutt said. "The pine trees are 12 years old. ... The kids today don't have any places to hunt or fish unless it's provided by the state, so we keep ours and the kids go down. We've got a little cabin on it and the kids and grandkids, we do a big grill-out once a year and we hunt on it."
Shelnutt said the ultimate plan for his family farmland is to keep it in the family.
"They're getting pretty close to making the first cutting. Then after that, we're going to look at raking the pine straw and you figure it'll be 12 more years, but they're going to replant it in pine trees," he said.
Of the 40 acres, 30 are in pine trees. The remainder includes hardwoods and a stream. The barn on the property has since been turned into a hunting cabin, and Shelnutt said his family and neighbors go down to the farm on the weekends or just for day trips to ride four-wheelers, hunt and grill lunch. The Shelnutts' land is involved in a land management program, and the family received donations from the National Wild Turkey Federation to establish spring and fall plantings for food plots as well as oak trees.
Brown sees her farm's future as a self-sustaining one, with a garden that includes her blueberry and strawberry plants, the beef cattle and chickens. She keeps track of her farm's value by comparing it to prices and acreage for sale in nearby areas in the Market Bulletin, just in case she wants to add on a few more acres.
"I found the whole process [of buying through a Market Bulletin listing] very easy and comfortable, and even to this day when the land edition comes out I look through it," Brown said. "I think that a lot of people are reluctant to use realtors, and just dealing with individuals and a handshake is a much simpler process than going through and paying commission."

BACK TO SCHOOL FEATURED RECIPES:

Snack rollups with honey mustard dipping sauce Chip salad featuring kale and sweet potatoes

Apple fries with peanut butter dipping sauce

Editor's Note: If your kids are anything like I was (or still am ...) vegetables may not be their favorite food group. But crisp some veggie slices in the oven, toss on some spices for garnish and tell your kids they're getting a chip salad, and yours will be the kitchen of envy. Try it with tomato, red cabbage and other produce for an especially colorful salad!

Ingredients: 2 cups fresh kale 3 small sweet potatoes 3 tablespoons olive oil

Salt to taste Ranch dressing

Editor's Note: This snack is stacked with protein and healthy carbs in the form of fruit. The peanut butter dip goes well with a variety of fruit, but with apple season coming up, we thought it would be delectable with a fresh, Georgia-grown orchard treat! For a more adult version, try grilling the apple before slicing it.

Ingredients: 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter 1/3 cup plain low fat yogurt 1 tablespoon apple juice

Dash of cinnamon Georgia apples

Editor's Note: Even if they're too little to help slice the tortillas, kids will love helping stack on the meat and rolling these snacks up! Though we use turkey and ham, you can substitute any deli meat you prefer. The rollups can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator.

Ingredients: For the rollups: 3 whole wheat tortillas Half-pound deli turkey Half-pound deli ham 12 small cubes of cheese 6 drinking straws, cut in half

For the dipping sauce: cup Dijon mustard cup honey 1 teaspoon mayonnaise

Instructions: 1. Lay the tortillas out flat. Place one to three slices of deli meat in the center of each tortilla. 2. Roll the tortillas up and cut each into four slices. 3. Gently place each rollup on a straw and top with a cheese cube. 4. Combine the mustard, honey and mayonnaise in a small bowl until thoroughly blended. Serve with rollups.

Instructions: For the kale chips: 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. Remove kale leaves from the stem. Cut or tear leaves into bite-size pieces. 3. Place kale, one tablespoon olive oil and salt in a baking pan. Toss to coat. 4. Bake kale for 12 minutes or until it starts to become crisp. Do not overcook.
For the sweet potato chips: 1. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. Thinly slice potatoes. Place potatoes, two tablespoons olive oil and salt in a baking pan and toss to coat. 3. Bake potatoes for seven minutes or until they start to become crisp and lightly brown.
To create the salad, layer kale chips with sweet potato chips on a platter and serve with ranch dressing on the side.

Instructions: 1. Slice apples in half, and slice each half into thin strips like French fries. 2. Combine peanut butter, yogurt, apple juice and cinnamon in a small bowl until thoroughly mixed. 3. Refrigerate dip until ready to serve.

County agents honored for `eggucating' Georgians

By Dallas Duncan
Two Cooperative Extension agents were honored in August for their work in "eggucating" youth and adults about one of Georgia's top commodities.
The Georgia Egg Commission's Excellence in Eggucation Award was started about 25 years ago for Extension agents who use GEC materials.
"So many used it that I often told them that really the Extension agents made us almost have other employees they really were an extension of our business," said GEC President Robert Howell. "They did such a good job representing our story. We decided we would have a little contest and see which of the Extension agents had done the best job throughout the year presenting the materials to the children and the adults."
GEC materials are provided at no charge. One award is presented to an agent who worked with 4-H and youth, and a second is given for an outstanding adult program.
"Susan Moore ... won the youth portion because she did a

summer 4-H program. We felt like the way that she approached Hibbs said it's an honor to receive the "eggucation" award.

AG TECH: Georgia aims to become leader in new ag industry

interpret it? How does it compare to the ground truth? That's why we're using test fields," said Steve Justice, director of the Centers of Innovation for Aerospace.
The idea of an agriculture UAV has been in the works since 2009. Guided Systems Technologies, which specializes in an unmanned helicopter, has been testing its products by flying over test fields at the Sunbelt Agricultural Exposition site in Moultrie, Ga.
"[UAVs] are not like your old RC helicopters everyone is familiar with. These vehicles have very sophisticated computers on board," Justice said.
Instead of a pilot inside, there is a safety pilot and spotters who watch the unmanned vehicle, ready to step in at a moment's notice if something goes wrong. Geo-markers in the field are connected to tell the vehicle where to fly, he said. The
This bird's eye view of a peanut field in south Georgia was taken by an unmanned aerial vehicle. UAV imaging technology can be put to use helping farmers detect diseases and pests, as well as environmental stressors, in their crops. Photo courtesy Guided Systems Technologies
vehicles are equipped to land themselves in a safe location if they lose connection to the flight system.
"[Producers] immediately saw the potential for this," Justice said. "Farmers today are users of technology. ... They just saw this as another technology that could help them in improving their yields and lowering their costs."
Reducing disease and pests "In the state of Georgia, we lose 16.5 percent of our crops to diseases. That's a pretty big number," McMurray said. "I want to be able to detect a disease before there's any physical manifestation of the disease. We're very interested in doing it on a plant-by-plant basis." McMurray, his Tech and UGA collaborators are developing multiple sensors that involve hyperspectral imaging which McMurray said tells if there's no water or low chlorophyll, but not the reason why as well as environmental stress indicators, such as sensing volatile organic compounds emitted by infected plants. They created small gas chromatographs, devices that separate chemicals in a sample, and put them on mobile robots. "That type of sensing technology is needed just to identify is the pathogen there and at what level. Then we want to combine that with the environmental data," McMurray said. "If we know every day is going to be in the 90s and then rain, there are certain pathogens, fungus and stuff where that's the ideal conditions." He anticipates finding individual plants that are going to get sick and then performing a target intervention. "Usually when you see something yellowing, it's already going down. Basically it's too late to do anything," said Chi Thai, associate professor of engineering at UGA who's worked with McMurray. "There's certain signs that the hyperspectral imaging system can see or detect before the disease becomes humanly visible." Thai is working on an agribot using hyperspectral imaging, which he calls a "robotic field scout." Thai's bot involves a roaming arm that examines leaves and fruits for pests. The concept agribot will shake pests onto a conveyor that rolls inside the machine. A camera system will read what the pests are and a spray boom on the agribot will treat the individual plant.
Complementary farm labor One concern is whether technology could replace farm la-

bor, but experts say that is not the case. "We're not really replacing anyone," Justice said. "We're
really opening up, with the imagery side of it, a whole new capability that they don't have today. Once we have this imagery, can we take unmanned vehicles and use them to do aerial spraying applications? Can we use unmanned aerial sprayers to do very surgical applications to pesticides in the field?"
Thai said they're trying to devise a system to either complement or work at night, or somehow go beyond human capabilities.
Another agribotics project in the works is also a partnership between Georgia Tech and UGA. This one is a harvesting arm attached to a tractor. It has the potential to be used for chemical sensing research.
McMurray said it's challenging developing a harvesting robot they are large, heavy and don't have the human's ability to pick fruit without having exact coordinates of where the fruit lies on a tree. But with years of work in an area called video servoing, and lighter equipment, agribotics has advanced to work more like how a human does.
"I can now have a mobile robot going down a field and it could have six arms, or eight arms. ... Each arm is solving its own hand-eye coordination problem," McMurray said. "We're developing that and we're putting it on a tractor in Tifton, Ga."
Even though this one has human-esque capabilities, he contends it is also meant to complement the farmer, not replace him.
"We're asking a lot of our farmers to be biologists, chemists, entomologists, plant pathologists, meteorologists, businessmen, marketing experts, those job requirements go on from there. That's too much," he said. "I consider myself a fairly smart guy, but I'm not an expert in that many areas. If we can remove some of those things form their job description and turn it over to a system they're still going to have input in the system but I think that's the way it should be. That will make life better for everyone. I don't view that with taking jobs away from everybody. That will make the job more attractable to people."
Adopting the opportunity
Though advances are being made at a rapid pace, it will probably be five to 10 years before agribots and UAVs are common sights on the farm, McMurray said.
"I'm still trying to answer some basic science questions. Then we've got to get to the field and be able to prove all of this stuff," he said.
Plus, there's the cost issue he anticipates the first prototype system to cost $1 million and the logistics of UAV flight duration, licensed pilots, the FAA regulations and more

to consider before this much of the technology can become commercially available.
Justice said the FAA is expected to have UAV flight regulations in place by September 2015, and they expect some proposed rules to come out early next year.
"We think agriculture is going to be one of the places that is an early adopter and the first big user of this," Justice said. "You're going to have farmers who buy these UAVs or buy the service from someone else."
McMurray said there's an environmental payoff to using this type of technology. By targeting a plant to spray versus spraying the whole field, fewer chemicals are being used.
He foresees a specific scenario combining the two technologies.
"I would probably use a UAV to do the hyperspectral data. That can cover large portions of the field much faster than a ground robot. Then I would use the ground robot to carry the chemical sensor, and the environmental data would be collected by a series of fixed sensors," McMurray said. "What I would kind of envision is that you might have the environmental data being collected on a routine basis, you fly a UAV once a week, and based upon the stress indicators, the environmental conditions and a history of that field, then you would deploy a ground robot to go look at the hot spots and areas of interest."
Becoming a leader
The agribotics projects received positive feedback from producers.
"They all know how much crop they lose to disease. They understand the economic impact of all of this. If we can do anything to help them, that's all good," McMurray said.
Justice said he intends for Georgia to become a leader in this field.
"People say, `Why aerospace and agribusiness?' The largest private employer in the state of Georgia is Delta Airlines. It started out ... as a crop-spraying business," Justice said. "We want to make sure we're working in this area with the industry so we don't miss the next Delta Airlines kind of company. We don't know where these companies, where this will take us. It's truly remarkable technology."
McMurray called the research the tip of the iceberg. "There's so many problems in so many additional areas that we can work. We're just thrilled to be working in this area," he said. "We need to have real impact. We're building prototypes, we're going out in the field because we want this to make the lives of Georgia's farmers better and make them more prosperous."

The harvesting arm attached to this tractor in Tifton, Ga., is just one of several robotics projects Georgia researchers are developing for agriculture. The tractor was designed by Glen Rains of UGA to go with the arm designed in part by Georgia Tech's Gary McMurray. Photo courtesy Ai-Ping Hu

Poultry processing concept could `revolutionize' industry

By Dallas Duncan
Generally, students are expected to pay attention in class. But for University of Georgia poultry science graduate Eric Ayers, daydreaming during lecture could actually pay off.
He remembered professor Scott Russell telling him that if he could develop a poultry harvesting system that would save water and save the carcass, he'd have "a billion dollar idea."
"It actually hit me in the side of the face one day," Ayers said. "For the remainder of the class, I just drew and drew and drew, just drawing what I had in my head. I immediately went up to him and asked if I could have 10 minutes of his time ... After that, he advised me to start looking for investors."
Ayers, now a regional account manager with Water Management Resources, is finding a way to turn his classroom drawings into a tangible piece of equipment.
"It's based on the time-old concept of using rubber fingers to remove feathers. The machine itself is not a new concept, but the style of finger that I have developed is what sets it apart from any other unit," Ayers said. "It allows you to reduce water while using the system, because technically you won't need any water with the design of these fingers."
The concept is designed to reduce wing breakage and carcass damage, which are costly to the poultry industry.
The defeathering machines on the market now use rubber fingers that rotate to knock feathers off the bird carcass. Portions of a carcass damaged by rubber fingers have to be cut off and discarded.
"It's a yield loss thing," Russell, a former poultry science professor of Ayers', said. "Wings are $1.25 a pound. If you're breaking wings, you're losing that money."
Though it took a little while to find backers for his concept, Ayers developed a partnership and has plans to patent and develop the project, though is not sure what his time-

line will be. The rubber finger concept he's developing can cost upwards of $6,000 to make one mold and if that mold doesn't work, it's back to the drawing board and he's out several thousand more dollars.
"You want to make sure you have a solid concept. You want to make sure you have that kind of money to go ahead and develop instead of dragging it out," he said. "My machine will only be able to use my fingers, and my fingers will only be able to be used in my machine."
Russell said there have not been significant developments in the picking, or plucking, portion of poultry processing since the 1960s.
"It's worked well and people think why fix it if it's not broken, but the reality is there is a lot of issues with current picker systems," Russell said.
Aside from the issues of carcass damage, another concern with existing machinery is the amount of water used. Though Ayers' concept will not be completely devoid of water, he plans for it to reduce the amount needed.
"It's good at what it does, because it clears the chickens of all the feathers and the same concept has been used for 30 years," Ayers said. "The huge downfalls are that it does beat up the bird [carcass]. It damages the bird in a way that decreases profit. It also uses water to wash down the feathers."
These systems use between five and seven gallons of water per bird. That's because unlike beef, pork and lamb, where the hide is exposed to bacteria and thus removed, the skin of the chicken is what has the potential to come into contact with fecal and bacterial material in the processing facility. It takes more water to wash the poultry carcass to keep these things at bay, Russell said.
"Water usage is very, very expensive. [Poultry plants] use a million to a million and a half gallons every day. They have to pay for the water and pay for the water to be treated," Russell said. "In the picker systems they use a lot of water to

spray over the birds and wash the feathers. If you don't have to use all the water to pick that bird, it's a lot of water savings."
With that in mind, he said there is potential for Ayers' concept to take flight in the poultry processing industry.
"It's really amazing that Eric was sitting in class and just used that opportunity to come up with something new ... something completely unthought of that revolutionizes the way we do things, and I think it might just do that," Russell said.

There could be challenges in obtaining Satsu-

mas for commercial use, as many states are under

quarantine for a citrus disease called greening.

Greening is a bacterial disease that blocks water

flow in the trees, and it can remain latent for two

years, Crawford said.

Potential growers should also consider har-

vesting needs when deciding whether or not to

plant Satsumas, Crawford said. Satsumas must be

will come off and then the citrus has no shelf life.
