A pioneering study introduces a functional data analysis (FDA) methodology to model the relationship between environmental factors and crop yields in year-round agriculture. Designed for crops like ...

A research team has developed an innovative method to quantify wheat uniformity using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imaging technology. This method estimates leaf area index (LAI), SPAD, fractional ...

Predictability in agriculture is about as hard to find as a needle in a haystack. When you’re trying to prevent pest and disease pressures from devastating your yield, your approach to crop management ...

A Kansas State University agronomy professor is part of an international team that is calling for a new approach to estimate crop yield potential and gaps – information that is critical in planning ...

AI-driven platforms increasingly assist farmers in choosing when to plant, irrigate, fertilize, or harvest. These systems ...

Scientists have trained an AI algorithm to count the number of flowers on fruit trees using only smartphone images. The system could predict the size of a harvest months in advance — saving farmers ...
