1. Democratizing Prescriptive Agronomy: Quality-Preserving Edge AI for Sugar Beets

The global sugar beet sector faces a critical production paradox where agronomic interventions designed to maximize root yield often compromise sucrose concentration and processing quality. While precision agriculture aims to navigate this delicate balance, current methodologies have reached a methodological impasse. Existing solutions are bifurcated between descriptive data-intensive machine learning (ML), which struggles to generalize across heterogeneous fields, and physiological Process-Based... A.
