To meet the increased demand for organic vegetables and improve their product quality, Sureveg CORE Organic Cofund ERA-Net project focuses on benefits best practices of growing different crops in alternate rows. A prototype a robotic platform was developed to address specific needs this field type at an individual plant level rather than per strip or section. This work describes novel method develop fertilization tasks crop rows, based automatic vegetable Detection Characterization (D.a.C)...
A crop monitoring system was developed for the supervision of organic fertilization status on tomato plants at early stages. An automatic and nondestructive approach used to analyze with different levels water-soluble fertilizer (3 + 5 NK) vermicompost. The evaluation composed by a multispectral camera five lenses: green (550 nm), red (660 edge (735 near infrared (790 RGB, computational image processing system. applied weekly in four treatments: (T0: 0 mL, T1: 6.25 T2: 12.5 mL T3: 25 mL)...
This paper set out to explore the precision agriculture (PA)-training needs of students studying in agricultural universities Euro-Mediterranean region (Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain). SPARKLE is a Knowledge Alliance Project, funded by European Union (EU), one its main goals narrow innovation divide between entrepreneurship effective application sustainable PA. During project, research conducted all countries revealed differences PA-training university students. Additionally, this...
The use of robotic systems in organic farming has taken on a leading role recent years; the Sureveg CORE Organic Cofund ERA-Net project seeks to evaluate benefits strip-cropping produce vegetables. This includes, among other objectives, development tool that facilitates automation fertilisation process, allowing individual treatment (at plant level). In production, slower nutrient release used fertilisers poses additional difficulties, as tardy detection deficiencies can no longer be...
The SUREVEG project focuses on improvement of biodiversity and soil fertility in organic agriculture through strip-cropping systems. To counter the additional workforce a robotic tool is proposed. Within project, modular proof concept (POC) version will be produced that combine detection technologies with actuation single-plant level form arm. This article crop characteristics point clouds obtained two lidars. Segregation plants was successfully achieved without use data from other sensor...
The growing demand for organically produced vegetables requires the adoption of new cropping systems such as strip-cropping. To counteract additional labour mixed entails, automation and robotics play a key role. This research focuses on development proof-of-concept platform that combines optical sensors an actuation system targeted precision fertilization encircles selected plants rather than local field area. Two sensor types are used detection fertilisation need: multispectral camera...
The development of new sensory and robotic technologies in recent years the increase consumption organic vegetables have allowed generation specific applications around precision agriculture seeking to satisfy market demand. This article analyzes use advantages optical systems for data acquisition processing Robotic Fertilization process. SUREVEG project evaluates benefits growing rows, using different technological tools like sensors, embedded systems, robots, this purpose. A platform has...
La agricultura actual está en proceso de transformación gracias a la introducción nuevas tecnologías para conseguir un mejor uso los recursos. Todo ello se engloba una rama ingeniería que llamamos "Agricultura Precisión" hace del GPS, el guiado automático tractores, las redes sensores campo, mecatrónica y sensórica bordo maquinaria, telemetría flotas o riegos, envío nube datos cuadernos digitales explotación, análisis avanzado … muchas otras están variando tópico sector productivo primario...
La demanda de los productos orgánicos está creciendo, por lo cual agricultores tradicionales están viendo la necesidad cambiar sus empresas. Sin embargo, falta atención a biodiversidad y fertilidad del suelo en práctica actual pueden dañar credibilidad general. Por eso el proyecto SUREVEG se enfoca producción orgánica sistemas tipo strip-cropping (cultivos mixtos franjas) aplicabilidad agricultura intensiva como manera para mejorar toda Europa. El objetivo es resiliencia, sostenibilidad...
