Fallen apple detection as an auxiliary task: Boosting robotic apple detection performance through multi-task learning

open access: yesSmart Agricultural Technology
In modern agricultural practices, advanced machine learning techniques play a pivotal role in optimizing yields and management. A significant challenge in orchard management is detecting apples on trees, which is essential for effective harvest planning ...

Assessing the host plants of the invasive apricot aphid, Myzus mumecola (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We investigated the host plants of the invasive apricot aphid Myzus mumecola (Hemiptera: Aphididae), an emerging pest species in Europe, by combining molecular and ecological approaches. The winter host plant was confirmed as apricot by both methods.

Spatial and seasonal patterns of potential orchard pollinators across a Lake Ontario gradient

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Potential pollinator captures varied by season, trap height and distance from Lake Ontario, indicating that flower visitors were not evenly distributed during apple bloom. Several common bee genera, including Lasioglossum, Agapostemon, Andrena and Apis, overlapped more closely with apple bloom than the dominant retained fly genus, Toxomerus.

Characteristics of water supply and demand in an agroforestry ecosystem under long-term continuous cropping assessed using the RZWQM2 model

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management
Sustainable agricultural management is one of the important factors for ensuring food security. In recent years, many wheat and maize fields on the Loess Plateau of China have been transformed into apple orchards for better economic returns. However, the

Comparing time‐lapse photography and traditional human observation in collecting crop pollinator visitation data Ajastetun valokuvauksen ja perinteisen suoran havainnoinnin vertailu kerättäessä tietoa pölyttäjien kukkakäynneistä viljelykasveilla

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Time‐lapse photography with commercially available trail cameras provides a competitive alternative to direct human observations for documenting pollinator flower visits, but its performance varies between crops. In apple, the cameras recorded more diverse pollinator assemblages than the human observer due to larger temporal coverage of the camera ...

Comparing verbenone‐based repellents for ambrosia beetle management in eastern apple orchards

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Non‐native ambrosia beetles (Xylosandrus germanus, X. crassiusculus, Anisandrus maiche) damage high‐density apple orchards across the eastern United States, motivating the search for selective, semiochemical‐based repellent strategies. Across Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania, three verbenone formulations, sachets, SPLAT® VERB and a test SPLAT ...

EFFECT EXERTED ON SOIL PROPERTIES BY APPLE-TREE CULTIVATION FOR MANY YEARS AND BY REPLANTATION. PART II. CONTENT OF MINERAL COMPONENTS IN SOIL AND LEAVES

open access: yesActa Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2011
Studies were carried out in the years 2008–2009 in the Experimental Orchard of Fruit Growing Department, on the area of RSGD in Przybroda. Apple-trees of ‘Topaz’ cultivar on M.26 rootstock were planted in five soil localities: 1 – directly in grubbed up
