1. Tomato Development Monitoring In An Open Field, Using A Two-Camera Acquisition SystemIntroduction Optimal harvesting date and predicted yield are valuable information when farming open field tomatoes, making harvest planning and work at the processing plant much easier. Monitoring growth during tomato?s early stages is also interesting to assess plant stress or abnormal development. Yet, it is very challenging due to the colours and the high degree of occlusion...

2. Sound Based Detection Of Moths In Open FieldsIntroduction Open field farming of tomatoes suffers from the presence of harmful moths whose larvas are devastating. Detecting automatically the presence of moths allows regulating the use of pesticides, according to the actual population present in the field. Up to now, sex pheromone traps have been used, the number of captured insects giving some indication about the population. However, proper inspection of the traps is... F. Rossant, J. Orensanz, D.

3. Modifying the University of Missouri Corn Canopy Sensor Algorithm Using Soil and Weather InformationCorn production across the U.S. Corn belt can be often limited by the loss of nitrogen (N) due to leaching, volatilization and denitrification. The use of canopy sensors for making in-season N fertilizer applications has been proven effective in matching plant N requirements with periods of rapid N uptake (V7-V11), reducing the amount of N lost to these processes. However, N recommendation algorithms used in conjunction with canopy sensor measurements have not proven accurate in making N recommendations... G. Bean, N.R. Kitchen, D.W. Franzen, R.J. Miles, C.

4. Field-scale Nitrogen Recommendation Tools for Improving a Canopy Reflectance Sensor AlgorithmNitrogen (N) rate recommendation tools are utilized to help producers maximize grain yield production. Many of these tools provide recommendations at field scales but often fail when corn N requirements are variable across the field. This may result in excess N being lost to the environment or producers receiving decreased economic returns on yield. Canopy reflectance sensors are capable of capturing within-field variability, although the sensor algorithm recommendations may not always be as accurate... C.J. Ransom, M. Bean, N. Kitchen, J.

5. Embodied Agentic Artificial Intelligence for Precision Agriculture: Cross-domain Experience from Multimodal Generative AIMy team develops inclusive, responsible, and multimodal AI technology across education, healthcare, and digital services grounded in our research in embodied agentic intelligence and large language models. I will share deployed examples from these domains and draw parallels to agriculture, where similar technical challenges persist, ranging from multimodal fusion for contextual reasoning, explainable AI for actionable insights, and data-efficient learning for adaptation and localization. While... N. Chen |
6. Innovating Irrigation: Affordable Smart Solutions for Water SustainabilityAgriculture accounts for 70–80% of global freshwater use, a level increasingly unsustainable under climate change. This study reports the development and field validation of a low-cost smart irrigation system for tomato and melon in Tuscany (2021–2023). The system integrates evapotranspiration-based models, wireless sensor networks, and adaptive control algorithms. In 2023 it achieved up to 50% water savings compared to traditional practices, without yield reduction, at a total cost... A. Matese |
