1. Estimating the Plant Stem Emerging Points (PSEPS) of Sugar Beets at Early Growth StagesSuccessful intra-row mechanical weed control of sugar beet (beta vulgaris) in early growth stages requires precise knowledge about location of crop plants. A computer vision system for locating Plant Stem Emerging Point (PSEP) of sugar beet in early growth stages was developed and tested. The system is based on detection of individual leaves; each leaf location is described by center of mass and petiole location. After leaf detection the true PSEP locations were annotated manually and... T.M. Giselsson, R.N. Jørgensen, H.S. Midtiby |
2. Disease Scouting For Aerial Blight Based On Logical Areas Of Collection In Soybean Fields Rotated With RiceRhizoctonia solani AG1-IA causes sheath blight in rice and aerial blight in soybean. In Arkansas, rice and soybean rotations facilitate a continuous source of R. solani AG1-IA inoculum from one year to the next. Aerial blight is a two stage disease where colonization of the plant occurs during the early vegetative growth stages and aerial blight symptoms occur during the reproductive growth stages after canopy closure. At canopy closure,... C.S. Rothrock, W.S. Monfort, T.W. Griffin, T.N. Spurlock |
3. Design and Performance Experiment of an Outer Grooved-Wheel Fertilizer Apparatus with the Helical ToothTraditional outer groove-wheel fertilizer apparatus (OGWFA) with the straight tooth exists the problem of breakage and pulsation in the fertilizing process. A new type of OGWFA with the helical tooth has been designed to solve this problem, and the amount of fertilizer can be adjusted. The helix angle of the helical tooth has been optimized by theory analysis and DEM simulation. It reveals that the helix angle should be ranged from 34.4° to 68.8°. The performances of the OGWFA with the... D. Jun, X. Junfang, Z. Wangyuan, W. Qiaohua, D. Youchun, S. Caixia, Z. Zhihui |
