DESCRIPTION:Agronomy Seminar - Dr. Lucas Rios Do Amaral\n"Digital Soil Map
 ping for Precision Agriculture: from Soil Data to Decision Support"\nJoin 
 us for the first in our Fall 2026 Agronomy Seminar Series:\n\nSpeaker\n\nD
 r. Lucas Rios Do Amaral\n\nAssociate Professor\n\nSchool of Agricultural E
 ngineering\n\nUniversity of Campinas\n\n(FEAGRI/UNICAMP)\n\nSeminar Title\
 n\n"Digital Soil Mapping for Precision Agriculture: From Soil Data to Deci
 sion Support"\n\nI am an agronomist and Associate Professor at the School 
 of Agricultural Engineering\, University of Campinas (UNICAMP)\, Brazil\, 
 where I have been a faculty member since 2015. I hold an M.Sc. and a Ph.D.
  in Crop Science\, including a doctoral research internship at the Univers
 ity of Nebraska-Lincoln\, USA.\n\nMy research focuses on Precision and Dig
 ital Agriculture\, particularly on the use of remote and proximal sensing\
 , geostatistics\, soil sampling strategies\, and digital soil mapping to t
 ransform spatial data into actionable information for agricultural decisio
 n-making. A major focus of my current research is developing mapping appro
 aches that support more efficient and site-specific management of agricult
 ural inputs.\n\nI have authored more than 60 scientific papers\, five book
  chapters\, and a Brazilian reference book on Precision Agriculture\, and 
 have supervised ten master's and six doctoral students. I am a Research Pr
 oductivity Fellow of the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Tec
 hnological Development (CNPq).\n\nI currently serve as Scientific Director
  of the Brazilian Association of Precision Agriculture (AsBraAP) and as th
 e ISPA Board Representative for Latin America and\n\nthe Caribbean. In 202
 6\, I received the Pierre C.Robert Precision Agriculture Young Scientist A
 ward. My research is strongly connected to international collaborations in
  North America and Europe\, as well as to close partnerships with farmers 
 and agricultural service providers\, helping bridge scientific research an
 d practical decision-making in commercial agriculture.\n
