1. Weeds Detection By Ground-level Hyperspectral ImagingWeeds are a severe pest in agriculture, causing extensive yield loss. Weed control of grass and broadleaf weeds is commonly performed by applying selective herbicides homogeneously all over the field. As presented in several studies, applying the herbicide only where needed has economical as well as environmental benefits. Combining remote sensing tools and techniques with the concept of precision agriculture has the potential to automatically... U. Shapira , I. Herrmann, A. Karnieli, D.J. Bonfil |
2. Ground Level Hyperspectral Imagery For Weeds Detection In Wheat FieldsWeeds are a severe pest in agriculture resulting in extensive yield loss. Applying precise weed control has economical as well as environmental benefits. Combining remote sensing tools and techniques with the concept of precision agriculture has the potential to automatically locate and identify weeds in order to allow precise control. The objective of the current work is to detect annual... D.J. Bonfil, U. Shapira, A. Karnieli, I. Herrmann, S. Kinast |
3. Winter Wheat Genotype Effect on Canopy Reflectance: Implications for Using NDVI for In-season Nitrogen Topdressing RecommendationsActive optical sensors (AOSs) measure crop reflectance at specific wavelengths and calculate vegetation indices (VIs) that are used to prescribe variable N fertilization. Visual observations of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plant greenness and density suggest that VI values may be genotype specific. Some sensor systems use correction coefficients to eliminate the effect of genotype on VI values. This study was conducted to assess the effects of winter wheat cultivars and growing conditions...

4. Usage of Milk Revenue Per Minute of Boxtime to Assess Cows Selection and Farm Profitability in Automatic Milking SystemsThe number of farms implementing robotic milking systems, usually referred as automatic milking systems (AMS), is increasing rapidly. AMS efficiency is a priority to achieve high milk production and higher incomes from dairy herds. Recent studies suggested that milkability (i.e., amount of milk produced per total time spent in the AMS [kg milk/ minute of boxtime]) could be used for as a criteria for genetic evaluations. Therefore, an indicator of milkability was developed, which combines economical... L. Fadul-pacheco, G. Bisson, R. Lacroix, M. Séguin, R. Roy, E. Vasseur, D. Lefebvre |
5. Through the Grass Ceiling: Using Multiple Data Sources on Intra-Field Variability to Reset Expectations of Pasture Production and Farm ProfitabilityIntra-field variability has received much attention in arable and horticultural contexts. It has resulted in increased profitability as well as reduced environmental footprint. However, in a pastoral context, the value of understanding intra-field variability has not been widely appreciated. In this programme, we used available technologies to develop multiple data layers on multiple fields within a dairy farm. This farm was selected as it was already performing at a high level, with well-developed... W. King, R. Dynes, S. Laurenson, S. Zydenbos, R. Macauliffe, A. Taylor, M. Manning, A. Roberts, M. White |
6. Leveraging UAV-based Hyperspectral Data and Machine Learning Techniques for the Detection of Powderly Mildew in VineyardsThis paper presents the development and validation of machine learning models for the detection of powdery mildew in vineyards. The models are trained and validated using custom datasets obtained from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with a hyperspectral sensor that can collect images in visible/near-infrared (VNIR) and shortwave infrared (SWIR) wavelengths. The dataset consists of the images of vineyards with marked regions for powdery mildew, meticulously annotated using LabelImg. ... S. Bhandari, M. Acosta, C. Cordova gonzalez, A. Raheja, A. Sherafat |
