1. UAV Multispectral Data As a Suitable Tool for Predicting Sweetness, Size, and Yield of Vidalia OnionsVidalia onions is a specialty crop cultivated solely within the southeastern region of Georgia. The key distinguishing characteristic of Vidalia onions is its high sugar content, making them highly prized and widely consumed. Ten thousand acres are grown with Vidalia Onions each year approximately, and the market value (~$150Mi/year) makes the crop very important for the State of Georgia. Traditionally, the planting, weeding, spraying, harvesting, and post-harvesting operations are usually done... M. Barbosa, L. Oliveira, C. Tyson, A. Shirley, R. Santos, L. Sales, R. Vargas |
2. Advancements in Agricultural Robots for Specialty Crops: a Comprehensive Review of Innovations, Challenges, and ProspectsThe emergence of robot technology presents a timely opportunity to revolutionize specialty crop production, offering crucial support across various activities such as planting, supporting general traits, and harvesting. These robots play a pivotal role in keeping stakeholders up-to-date of developments in their production fields, while providing them the capability to automate laborious tasks. Then, to elucidate the advancements in this domain, we present the results of a comprehensive review... M. Barbosa, R. Santos, L. Sales, L. Oliveira |
3. Exploring the XAG R150 UGV Capabilities: Air-Assisted vs Vertical Boom Attachment AssessmentsRobotic spraying platforms are rapidly advancing in specialty crop production; however, limited information exists regarding optimal spray parameters under different crop spacings and spray configurations. The XAG R150 robotic sprayer is a ground-based autonomous system capable of operating in both air-assisted and vertical/horizontal boom spraying modes, offering flexibility for diverse row-crop environments. This study evaluated spray performance parameters of the XAG R150 under varying crop... |
