1. Can Optimization Associated with On-Farm Experimentation Using Site-Specific Technologies Improve Producer Management Decisions?Crop production input decisions have become increasingly difficult due to uncertainty in global markets, input costs, commodity prices, and price premiums. We hypothesize that if producers had better knowledge of market prices, spatial variability in crop response, and weather conditions that drive crop response to inputs, they could more cost-effectively make profit-maximizing input decisions. Understanding the drivers of variability in crop response and designing accompanying management strategies... B.D. Maxwell, A. Bekkerman, N. Silverman, R. Payn, J. Sheppard, C. Izurieta, P.

2. Automated In-field Ornamental Nursery Plant Counting and Quality Assessment with End-to-end Deep Learning for Inventory ManagementEfficient inventory management and rigorous quality evaluation play crucial roles for monitoring sales, yield, space utilization, production schedules, and quality enhancements in the ornamental nursery sector. The current method for conducting inventory and quality assessments is through manual plant counting, even when dealing with thousands of plants. The prevailing approach is inefficient, time consuming, labor intensive, potential inaccuracies, and high expenses. Given the continuous decrease... H.H. Syed, T. Rehman |
3. A High-throughput Phenotyping System Evaluating Salt Stress Tolerance in Kale Plants Cultivated in Aquaponics EnvironmentsMonitoring plant growth in a controlled environment is crucial to make informed decisions for various management practices such as fertilization, weed control, and harvesting. Agronomic, physiological, and architectural traits in kale plants (Brassica oleracea) are important to producers, breeders, and researchers for assessing the performance of the plants under biotic and abiotic stresses. Traditionally, architectural, and morphological traits have been used to monitor plant growth. However,... T. Rehman, M. Rahman, E. Ayipio, D. Lukwesa, J. Zheng, D. Wells, H.H. Syed |
