1. Design, Error Characterization And Testing Of A System To Measure Locations Of Fruits In Tree CanopiesMapping the variability of fruit size and quality within tree canopies in commercial orchards is an important tool for implementing precision horticulture. To do so at a reasonably fast rate requires localization technologies that offer sufficient speed and accuracy, at a range long enough to cover entire trees – or several trees at a time. Existing approaches for measuring fruit locations include: manual (centimeter accuracy and measurement time in the order of minutes per... S.G. Vougioukas, F.J. Jimenez, F. Khosro anjom, R.

2. Using a UAV-Based Active Canopy Sensor to Estimate Rice Nitrogen StatusActive canopy sensors have been widely used in the studies of crop nitrogen (N) estimation as its suitability for different environmental conditions. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is a low-cost remote sensing platform for its great flexibility compared to traditional ways of remote sensing. UAV-based active canopy sensor is expected to take the advantages of both sides. The objective of this study is to determine whether UAV-based active canopy sensor has potential for monitoring rice N status,... S. Li, Q. Cao, X. Liu, Y. Tian, Y. Zhu |
3. Analysis of Yield Gaps in Sub-Saharan African Cereal Production SystemsFood production in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is one of the lowest and keeps declining across farmers’ fields season after season (Assefa et al., 2020; F Affholder, 2013). Yield gaps in cereal cropping systems have been reported by many researchers, attesting to the existence of huge variability in production levels of cereals such as corn, wheat, sorghum, rice and millet. across SSA. It is still unclear whether the yield gaps are similar in size or driven by similar factors across different... E. Odoom, K.A. Frimpong, S. Phillips |
