1. Fighting Food, Fertilizer, and the Climate Crisis in Africa Through Targeted Nitrogen ManagementFood insecurity is a major challenge in Africa which is likely to worsen in the future unless food production in the region is substantially increased to keep up with the food demand of the increasing population. A sufficient amount of nitrogen (N) fertilizer is required for increasing crop yield as N helps convert solar radiation into carbohydrates that drive plant growth. However, smallholder producers in Africa use a small quantity of fertilizer N not sufficient for plant needs resulting... T. Sapkota, N. Cheerakkollil konath, R. Takele, S. Snapp |
2. Assessment of Nitrogen and Phosphorus Content (NP) in Citrus Trees Using UAV-imagery Derived Vegetation Indices and Machine Learning AlgorithmsMonitoring 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.
