1. Development of Canopy Mapping System of Asian pears (Pyrus pyrifolia Naka) Using Terrestrial Laser ScanningIn this paper, the canopy mapping system (CMS) of Asian pears for estimating yield during Bud thinning and Pruning operations using point cloud data was proposed. Bud thinning and Pruning in Asian pear (Pyrus pyrifolia Naka) is necessary to ensure quality and yield but is time-consuming and heavily depends on work knowledge. This study described a method of estimating the number of fruits through the length of a branch based on remote sensing. The CMS would be useful to support more efficient... E. Morimoto, J. Lee, K.

2. The Use of Precision Agriculture Tools to Monitor the Growth Performance of Pineapple in Different Soil Management SystemsPineapple production is important in Ghana as a source of food, raw material for industry and foreign exchange from export, especially to the European Union (EU) market. In Ghana, pineapple growth and yield assessment are done with field-based measurements and chemometric methods in laboratories, but, collecting primary data in this way is time-consuming, costly, and laborious. Moreover, there are few technically skilled people with specialization in rigorous laboratory methods, and information... E. Hanyabui |
3. Potato Yield Prediction Using Multi-temporal Sentinel-2 Data and Multiple Linear RegressionTraditional potato growth models have a number of flaws, i.e., the cost of data collection, quality of input data, and the absence of spatial information in some cases. To address these challenges, we created a multiple linear regression model (MLRM) that uses the multi-temporal Sentinel-2 derived indices to predict potato yield. Along the growing season (from October 2019 to February 2020) eight Sentinel-2 imageries were collected, afterwards, the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI)... M.E.

4. Photogrammetrically Assessed Smallholder Pineapple Fields in Ghana Using Small Unmanned Aircraft SystemsUltra-high-resolution imagery taken by small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS, drones) has been proven beneficial for the monitoring of agricultural crops in conventional farming especially in the context of precision farming. For smallholder pineapple cultivation, the use of sUAS imagery is still sparsely evaluated. However, technical developments in low cost sUAS-sensor combinations make assessments of agricultural areas by service providers more and more affordable for Africa. In this study,... M. Hobart, E.

5. The Global Crop Nutrient Removal Database (Gcnrd): Development, Initial Analysis and Identification of Current Data GapsImproved understanding of the factors affecting nutrient uptake can enable production optimization, increased nutrient use efficiencies, reduced environmental footprints, and overall higher economic returns for farmers. Crop uptake is affected by genetics, soil, weather, agronomic practices, and their interactions. As such, understanding the way crop nutrient uptake varies across different regions and production environments requires the coverage of various parameters, and necessitates collaboration... C.
