Evaluation of LiDAR‐based canopy trait estimation in Midwestern row crops
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Stand count, the number of plants per unit ground area, and leaf area index (LAI), the ratio of leaf area to ground area, are critical traits for crop research but are traditionally measured using labor‐intensive methods. While new sensing technologies are being developed, quantifying improvement in measurement efficiency and data quality ...
