1. Guiding Spot Sprayer Decisions: Toward Species-Selective Weed Control

Site-specific weed management is a key approach in precision crop protection, enabling spatially targeted herbicide application based on within-field variability in weed distribution. However, most operational spot-spraying systems rely on uniform nozzle activation rules, implicitly treating all detected weeds equally despite differences in competitive ability and ecological function. This limits the potential of precision systems to exploit species-level differentiation in practice. This... M. Gentili, M.S. Madsen, V.A. Nichols, R.N. Jørgensen, J.R. Jørgensen,
