Degrees

BS (National Agricultural Univ. of Ukraine)
MS, PhD (Purdue Univ.)

Short Bio

Originally from Kyiv, Ukraine, Dr. Adamchuk obtained a mechanical engineering degree from the National Agricultural University of Ukraine (currently National University of Life and Environmental Sciences of Ukraine), located in his hometown. Later, he received both MS and PhD degrees in Agricultural and Biological Engineering from Purdue University (USA). In 2000, Dr. Adamchuk began his academic career as a faculty member in the Department of Biological Systems Engineering at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (USA). Ten years later, he assumed his current position in the Department of Bioresource Engineering at 捆绑SM社区 (Canada), while retaining his adjunct status at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Currently, he serves as the Chair of the Bioresource Engineering Department. In addition, he is Canada鈥檚 representative to the International Society of Precision Agriculture.

Research Interests

Dr. Adamchuk leads a Precision Agriculture and Sensor Systems (PASS) research team that focuses on developing and deploying soil and plant sensing technologies to enhance the economic and environmental benefits of precision agriculture. His team has designed and evaluated a fleet of proximal sensor systems capable of measuring physical, chemical and biological attributes directly in a field. Most sensors produce geo-referenced data to quantify spatial soil/plant heterogeneity, which may be used to prescribe differentiated treatments according to local needs. Through studies on sensor fusion and data clustering, he investigated the challenges faced by early adopters of precision agriculture. Through his outreach activities, Dr. Adamchuk has taught multiple programs dedicated to a systems approach in adopting smart farming technologies around the world.

Current Research

• Integrated proximal sensing of soils and crops.
• Development of crop quality/quantity estimation methods using UAV imagery.
• AI-driven decision support tools for alfalfa鈥檚 winter survival and persistency.
• Model development for ground-engaging tools using real-time numerical terramechanics and discrete-element method.
• Agricultural multi-layer data fusion to support cloud-based agricultural advisory services.
• Toward a more sustainable Macdonald Farm: Assessment and Strategic Planning.
