1. Using an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle with Multispectral with RGB Sensors to Analyze Canola Yield in the Canadian Prairies

In 2017 canola was planted on 9 million hectares in Canada surpassing wheat as the most widely planted crop in Canada.  Saskatchewan is the dominant producer with nearly 5 million hectares planted in 2017.  This crop, seen both as one of the highest-yielding and most profitable, is also one of most expensive and input-intensive for producers on the Canadian Prairies.   In this study, the effect of natural and planted shelterbelts on canola yield was compared with canola yield...
