1. Detection Of Fruit In Canopy Night-Time Images: Two Case Studies With Apple And MangoReliable estimation of the expected yield remains a major challenge in orchards. In a recent work we reported the development of an algorithm for estimating the number of fruits in images of apple trees acquired in natural daylight conditions. In the present work we tested this approach with night-time images of similar apple trees and further adapted this approach to night-time images of mango trees. Working with the apple images required only... R. Linker, A. Payne, K. Walsh, O. Cohen |
2. Monitoring Ratio Of Leaf Carbon To Nitrogen In Winter Wheat Based On Hyperspectral MeasurementsThe metabolic status of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) as two essential elements of crop plants has significant influence on the ultimate formation of yield and quality in crop production. Leaf is the major organ of plant photosynthesis and physiological activity, and in leaf tissues the ratio of carbon to nitrogen (C/N), defined as the ratio of LCC (leaf carbon concentration) to LNC (leaf nitrogen concentration), can...

3. Technological Improvement on Sugar Cane Yield MonitorThis paper presents the technological improvement on sugar cane yield monitor. The system designed employs load cells as an instrument for weighing billets, set up on the side conveyor of the harvester before the sugar cane billets are dropped into a field transport wagon. This data, along with the information gathered by GPS installed on the harvester, enabled the elaboration of a digital yield map using GIS. In order to improve the yield monitor a re-design of the first prototype was accomplished.... D.G. Cerri, G.R. Gray, P.S. Magalhães |
