Quick Measurement of Chlorophyll Concentration by Chlorophyll Meter.

The Basics of Chlorophyll Measurement

What is Chlorophyll? Chlorophyll, in various forms, is bound within the living cells of algae and other phytoplankton found in surface water. Chlorophyll is a key biochemical component in the molecular apparatus that is responsible for photosynthesis, the critical process in which the energy from sunlight is used to produce life-sustaining oxygen. In the photosynthetic reaction below, carbon di...

In Situ Measurement of Pecan Leaf Nitrogen Concentration using a Chlorophyll Meter and Vis-near Infrared Multispectral Camera

Knowledge of foliar nitrogen (N) concentration is important in pecan [Carya illinoinensis (Wang.) K. Koch] management protocols. Lower cost and/or rapid methods to determine foliar N are desirable and may result in improved management strategies as well as enable precision agricultural practices to be deployed in pecan production. This study investigates using a portable chlorophyll meter and V...

Chlorophyll Meter Assessments of Corn Response to Nitrogen Management Practices

Quick Estimation of Apple (Red Delicious and Golden Delicious) Leaf Area and Chlorophyll Content

ABSTRACT- The evaluation of leaf area and leaf nutritional value is important for crop growth modeling and estimations of its performance. The purpose of this study was to use image processing techniques to develop an economical method to ease the assessment of nutrient status and leaf area (LA) of plants and to compare the outcomes of this method with linear models. Leaf area and leaf chloroph...
