1. Spatial Modelling Of Agricultural Crops For Parallel Loading OperationsThere is a trend in agricultural engineering towards high-performance harvesting machines with growing operating width and throughput. As much as performance and throughput are rising, the transportation units are characterized by increasing transportation volume. If harvesting and transport are combined in parallel operation (e.g. self-propelled forage harvester), the driver of the harvesting machine and the driver of the transport unit has to pay highest attention to the loading process....

2. Sensor And System Technology For Individual Plant Crop ScoutingSensor and system technologies are key components for automatic treatment of individual plants as well as for plant phenotyping in field trials. Based on experiences in research and application of sensors in agriculture the authors have developed phenotyping platforms for field applications including sensors, system and software development and application-specific mountings. Sensor and data fusion have a high potential by compensating varying selectivities... A. Ruckelshausen, K.V. Alheit, L. Busemeyer, R. Klose, A. Linz, K. Moeller, F. Rahe, M. Thiel, D. Trautz, U.

3. Applications Of Small UAV Systems For Tree And Nursery Inventory ManagementUnmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) systems could provide low-cost and high spatial resolution aerial images. These features and ease of operation make it a practical tool for applications in precision agriculture and horticulture. This paper highlights the application of UAV systems in tree counting, which is vital for tree inventory management and yield estimation. In this paper, two types of trees were discussed. One type is with non-uniform canopy area (e.g. container plants and citrus... Y. She, R. Ehsani, J. Robbins, J. Owen, J.N. Leiva |
4. Autonomous Service Robots For Orchards And Vineyards: 3D Simulation Environment Of Multi Sensor-Based Navigation And ApplicationsIn order to fulfill economical as well as ecological boundary conditions information technologies and sensor are increasingly gaining importance in horticulture. In combination with the reduced availability of human workers automation technologies thus play a key role in the international competition in vinicultures and orchards and have the potential to reduce the costs as well as environmental impacts. The authors are working in the... J. Hertzberg, A. Ruckelshausen, E. Wunder, A. Linz |
5. Monitoring the Effects of Weed Management Strategies on Tree Canopy Structure and Growth Using UAV-LiDAR in a Young Almond OrchardThe primary objective of this study was to assess the potential effect of integrated weed management (IWM) on canopy structure and growth in a young almond orchard using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) LiDAR point cloud data. The experiment took place in the Neve Ya’ar Model Farm, with four IWM strategies tested: (1) standard herbicide-based management, (2) physical-mechanical approach, (3) cover crops, and (4) integrated weed management combining herbicide and mowing. In 2019 (pre-treatment)... T. Paz kagan, R. Lati , T. Caras |
