1. Detection of Nitrogen Stress on Winter Wheat by Multispectral Machine VisionHand-held sensors (SPAD meter, N-Tester, …) used for detecting the leaves nitrogen concentration (Nc) present several drawbacks. The nitrogen concentration is gained by an indirect way through the chlorophyll concentration and the leaves have to be fixed in a defined position for the measurements. These drawbacks could be overcome by an imaging device that measures the canopy reflectance. Hence, the objective of the paper is to analyse the potential of multispectral imaging for detecting... M.

2. Design of an Automatic Travelling Electric Fence System for Sustainable Grazing ManagementFences are used in Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) to prevent herbivores from overgrazing and under grazing forages. While effective in controlling animal entry and exit, traditional fences are not flexible enough to meet the needs of both foraging animals and plants in terms of both nutrient availability and physiological demands. An electric fencing system is a form of traditional fencing that employs an electric charge to create a barrier and dissuade animals or people from crossing it. Even... M. Alahe, Y. Chang, J.O.
