2. Precision Agriculture In New Zealand’s Farming SystemsTo date New Zealand farmers do not realize how involved they are in Precision Agriculture (PA). As arable farmers we know how many kilograms of nitrogen (N) it takes to grow a tonne of wheat, how many kilograms of seed we can produce for every millimetre of water that is applied (through irrigation and/or rainfall) and yet we don’t believe we are involved in PA. As dairy farmers we are matching feed requirements to the specific production level of individual cows. We are... C. Mackenzie, C. Mackenzie |
3. Sustainable Use Of Irrigation WaterThe water footprint of irrigation systems can be reduced significantly by combining data from Electromagnetic (EM) soil survey with variable rate technology on irrigators. Variable Rate Irrigation (VRI) is providing annual irrigation water savings of between 25 -50% on farms throughout NZ. Flow-on benefits include reduced pumping costs, improved crop yields and soil health along with reduced nutrients leaching to groundwater. The... C. Mackenzie |
4. Develpoment of Bagged Guava Quality Grading System Using Image Recognition and Generative Adversarial Networks(GANS)Taiwan’s warm climate and abundant sunlight make it highly suitable for guava cultivation, making guava an important economic crop. However, current quality grading still relies on manual inspection, which is labor-intensive, inconsistent, and affected by bagging practices. To address this, we propose an automatic grading system using deep learning and generative adversarial networks. The framework collects images of bagged and bare guavas, applies YOLOv9 for fruit detection and background... C. Chang |
