Volumetric based mass flow estimation on sugarcane harvesters [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Yield monitors on harvesters are a key component of precision agriculture. Mass flow estimation is the critical factor to measure, and having this allows for field productivity analysis, adjustments to machine efficiency, and cost minimization by ensuring trucks are filled maximally without exceeding weight limits.

Scientifica, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Land degradation poses a significant environmental challenge, leading to reduced soil fertility, agricultural production, and overall land productivity. To combat this issue, the Ethiopian government has implemented various soil and water conservation (SWC) strategies in rural areas over the last few decades. This study assessed the impact of these SWC

Using vis-NIRS and Machine Learning methods to diagnose sugarcane soil chemical properties [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Knowing chemical soil properties might be determinant in crop management and total yield production. Traditional soil properties estimation approaches are time-consuming and require complex lab setups, refraining farmers from promptly taking steps towards optimal practices in their crops.

Reliability-centered maintenance: analyzing failure in harvest sugarcane machine using some generalizations of the Weibull distribution [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 In this study we considered five generalizations of the standard Weibull distribution to describe the lifetime of two important components of harvest sugarcane machines. The harvesters considered in the analysis does the harvest of an average of 20 tons of sugarcane per hour and their malfunction may lead to major losses, therefore, an effective ...

Towards identification of pathogenicity genes specific to Xanthomonas albilineans strains closely associated with sugarcane leaf disease outbreaks [PDF]
, 2010 Xanthomonas albilineans is a xylem-invading pathogen that causes leaf scald, one of the major diseases of sugarcane. Interestingly, this pathogen lacks both the xanthan gum genes cluster and a type III secretion system (T3SS) of the Hrp1 and Hrp2 ...
