1. In Season Estimation of Barley Biomass with Plant Height Derived by Terrestrial Laser Scanning

The monitoring of plant development during the growing season is a fundamental base for site-specific crop management. In this regard, the amount of plant biomass at a specific phenological stage is an important parameter to evaluate the actual crop status. Since biomass is directly only determinable with destructive sampling, methods of recording other plant parameters, such as crop height or density, which are suitable for reliable estimations are increasingly researched. Over the past two decades... N. Tilly
