1. Automated Initial Plant Stand Assessment in Bean Crops Using Uav-based Yolov8 DetectionThe use of RGB images acquired by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), combined with artificial intelligence techniques, has increased significantly in recent years for object identification and crop monitoring in agriculture. These technologies enable rapid plant stand count, facilitating decision-making processes. However, limited information is available regarding the optimal flight height for identifying bean plants at early growth stages. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate... G.

2. Benchmarking Precision Agriculture Adoption in the United States and BrazilThe United States has long been regarded as a global leader in agricultural technology and productivity. However, rapid advancements in other major producing countries are challenging this position. Brazil, in particular, has paired large-scale crop expansion with accelerated digital transformation, raising important questions about where the United States continues to lead and where it risks losing its competitive edge. Understanding how precision agriculture technologies are being adopted and... J. Colussi, B. Erickson, T. Malone, M. Langemeier, C. Fiechter |
3. Development and Field Validation of SMART-C: A Geostatistics and PCA-Based Decision Framework for Site-Specific Cocoa Management in the Brazilian AmazonCocoa production plays a major socioeconomic role in Pará State, Brazil’s largest producing region, with annual output exceeding 140 thousand tons. Although Brazil ranks among the world’s leading cocoa producers, most production systems are still managed using field-average approaches that disregard within-field spatial variability of soil attributes and crop performance. This limitation restricts input efficiency and long-term system sustainability in perennial tropical systems.This... |
