Abstract Monitoring spatial variations in plant growth and forecasting yield before harvest provides valuable insights for optimizing agronomic decision‐making in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivation. Although unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)‐based remote sensing has recently enabled the development of tuber fresh weight (TW) estimation models, their

Peanut combine residue distribution and nutrient stratification across the harvest swath
Abstract Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production contributes substantial organic matter and nutrients to subsequent rotations, but residue distribution by harvest equipment is often uneven. This study quantified peanut chaff distribution across 6‐row combines at multiple sites in the Missouri Delta during 2023 and 2024.
