1. LiDAR-based soybean crop segmentation for autonomous navigation

The technological advances in the last few decades have greatly changed agricultural operations. In order to became safer, more profitable, efficient, and sustainable, modern farms have adopted the use of sophisticated technologies, such as robots, sensors, aerial images, and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System). These technologies not only increase the crop productivity, but also reduce the wide use of water, fertilisers, and pesticides. Due to this, they reduce costs and negative environmental... V.A.

2. Development and Validation of an Algorithm for Optical Sensor-based Nitrogen Fertilization for Durum Wheat in Central Ethiopia I. Algorithm Development

Monitoring in-season nitrogen (N) management using proximal optical sensors is often considered highly cost-effective and efficient. Developing a successful sensor-based algorithm to optimize in-season N application for durum wheat could enhance productivity and nitrogen use efficiency. This study aimed to develop and validate a sensor-based algorithm for N fertilization of durum wheat in central Ethiopia. The developed algorithm is based on the prediction of total N uptake from normalized difference... S. Endris, T. Mesfin, O. Atnafu, S. Tamiru
