Robotic weed control using automated weed and crop classification

Journal of Crop and Weed

Radiations and radioisotopes are used in agricultural research to induce genetic variability in crop plants to develop improved varieties, to manage insect pests, monitor fate and persistence of pesticides, to study fertilizer use efficiency and plant micronutrient uptake and also to preserve agricultural produce. Use of radiation and radioisotopes in agriculture is one of the most important fi...

utonomous robotic weed control systems : A review

Autonomous robotic weed control systems hold promise toward the automation of one of agriculture’s few remaining unmechanized and drudging tasks, hand weed control. Robotic technology may also provide a means of reducing agriculture’s current dependency on herbicides, improving its sustainability and reducing its environmental impact. This review describes the current status of the four core te...

Weed Control via Intercropping with Gliricidia. Ii. Corn Crop

A reduction in herbicide use is one of modern agriculture’s main interests and several alternatives are being investigated with this objective, including intercropping. Gliricídia (Gliricidia sepium) mulch has no allelopathic effect on corn or beans but significantly decreased the population of some weed species. The objective of this study was to evaluate green ear and grain yield in corn cult...

Paddy Weed Leaf Classification Using Neuro-fuzzysystem

The productivity of paddy rice in Malaysia has improved as the technology advances. However, several concerns need to be considered to maintain the productivity. The growth of paddy weeds in the fields is one of the concerns that need to be taken care of as it resulted to the decrease of the paddy yield. This paper presents an integrated method for classifying paddy weeds through the shape of t...
