1. Estimating greensnap yield damage with canopy reflectance: a case study Grain yield reduction caused by storm-induced plant breakage (green snap) occurs often in corn fields. With climate change and an increasing frequency in the occurrence of extreme weather events, it is essential to develop methods that can accurately estimate green snap damage, so growers can be properly compensated by insurance companies for yield loss. Because plant breakage also affects crop canopy reflectance, this case study aimed to characterize the changes in crop canopy reflectance... G. Dias paiao, T.J. Nigon, F.G. Fernández, C.

2. FARMER CHARLIE: PRECISION AGRICULTURE AT SMALLHOLDER FARMERS’ SERVICE Preliminary research and an ongoing project in Nigeria showed that agriculture is a crucial activity in the country. It is mainly carried out in small, family-owned farms: in fact, 88% of Nigeria farmers work on less than 0.5 ha. Lack of resources, of readily available information and the impact of climate on agricultural activities lead to low yields and high-cost farm inputs (FAO, 2020). The availability of agricultural data and weather forecast information could play an essential role in improving... B. Bonnardel, G. Cursoli Download paper
3. Nutrient Quality Studies of Fluted Pumpkin (Telfairia Occidentalis Hook. F) Leaves as Influence by Fertilizer Micro-dosing and Time The nutrient qualities of vegetables have been noted to be affected by agronomic practices. The study evaluated the effect of fertilizer micro-dosing and time of application on nutrient quality of fluted pumpkin. The field experiment was carried out during 2017/2018 cropping season at the Teaching and Research Farm, Obafemi Awolowo University (O.A.U), Ile-Ife, situated within the forest zone (latitude 070 28’N and longitude 040 33’East and 224 m above sea level). The experiment was...
4. Predicting in-Season Sorghum yield potential using Remote Sensing Approach: a case study of Kano in Sudan Savannah agro- ecological zone, Nigeria The preliminary estimation of expected yields and the accuracy of this evaluation provide information for decision-making related to the harvest. Estimating crop yield using remote sensing techniques has proven to be successful, having the ability to provide yield estimates prior to harvest. This study was conducted to examine the applicability of Sentinel-2B for estimating sorghum yield during the 2018 rainy season in Bebeji, Dawakin-Kudu and Rano Local Government Areas Kano State, in the Sudan...

5. Assessment of Nitrogen and Phosphorus Content (NP) in Citrus Trees Using UAV-imagery Derived Vegetation Indices and Machine Learning Algorithms Monitoring nutrient status of citrus trees is fundamental to ensure optimum fruit yield and quality. However, this task is traditionally time-consuming and laborious. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), with their high temporal and spatial resolution imagery, are demonstrating a great potential to substitute traditional methods in assessing nutrient status of several crops, including citrus. In this study, we evaluated the performance of vegetation indices (VIs) derived from UAV multispectral images... Z. Abail, H. Benaouda, M. Chikhaoui, H. Benyahia, O. Iben halima, M. Baraka, A.
