1. Sun Effect on the Estimation of Wheat Ear Density by Deep LearningEar density is one of the yield components of wheat and therefore a variable of high agronomic interest. Its traditional measurement necessitates laborious human observations in the field or destructive sampling. In the recent years, deep learning based on RGB images has been identified as a low-cost, robust and high-throughput alternative to measure this variable. However, most of the studies were limited to the computer challenge of counting the ears in the images, without aiming to convert... S. Dandrifosse, E. Ennadifi, A. Carlier, B. Gosselin, B.

2. Decision Support Tools for Developing Aflatoxin Risk Maps in Peanut FieldsAspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus hereafter referred to jointly as A. flavus, are soil fungi that infect and contaminate preharvest and postharvest peanuts with the carcinogenic secondary metabolite aflatoxin. A. flavus can cause extensive economic losses to peanut growers and shellers by contaminating peanut kernels with aflatoxins. In the southeastern U.S., contamination from aflatoxin continues to be a major threat to the peanut industry and... G. Vellidis, M. Abney, T. Burlai, J. Fountain, R.C. Kemerait, S. Kukal, L.

3. Field Mapping for Aflatoxin Assessment in Peanut Crops Using Thermal ImageryAflatoxin is a toxic carcinogenic compound produced by certain species of Aspergillus fungi, which has a significant impact on peanut production. Aflatoxin levels above a certain threshold (20 ppb in the USA and 4 ppb in Europe) make peanuts unsuitable for export, resulting in significant financial losses for farmers and traders. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are becoming increasingly popular for remote sensing applications in agriculture. Leveraging this advancement, UAV-based thermal imaging... S. Shrestha, L. Lacerda, G.
