1. Estimation of Leaf Area in Hydroponic Microgreenhouses by Digital Image Processing and Color-Based SegmentationMonitoring plant development is a fundamental pillar of precision agriculture, as leaf area is a primary indicator of photosynthetic capacity, transpiration rates, and overall biomass accumulation. In controlled environments such as hydroponic micro-greenhouses, real-time growth monitoring enables timely adjustments to nutrient film technique (NFT) parameters. However, conventional leaf area measurement methods often rely on invasive sampling or expensive, high-maintenance optical equipment, limiting... M. Andrade, J. Da Silva Fonseca, R. Toledo, F.

2. Autonomous Edge Computing Station for Precision Soil and Climate Monitoring in Remote and Low-Connectivity EnvironmentsThe expansion of Precision Agriculture (PA) into remote rural areas, particularly in developing countries like Brazil, is frequently hindered by severe infrastructure constraints. Large-scale adoption of digital tools faces the dual challenge of limited 4G/5G connectivity at the field level (the "talhão") and the high costs associated with conventional electrification and industrial-grade equipment. These barriers disproportionately affect small and medium-sized farmers, creating... M. Andrade, R. Toledo |
