Animal Segregation: The Biopolitics of Concentrated Pig Farming
Abstract This paper explores the possibility to think through the concept of animal segregation to understand the more‐than‐human geographies of livestock animals. By redirecting the analytical tools for studying the spatial separation of humans to the segregation of animals, this paper contributes to understanding the geographical processes of ...

Climate change may have limited effect on global risk of potato late blight
Weather affects the severity of many plant diseases, and climate change is likely to alter the patterns of crop disease severity. Evaluating possible future patterns can help focus crop breeding and disease management research.

Abstract The two‐spotted spider mite (TSSM; Tetranychus urticae Koch) is a major pest of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), causing substantial yield and quality losses in Ethiopia and worldwide. The present study evaluated the impact of tomato branch pruning and trellising on TSSM populations and yield in the Central Rift Valley tomato production area ...

Abstract An agronomic trait such as stand count is important for cultivar development and crop management practices. Manually counting the number of plants is time consuming, labor‐intensive, and prone to error. The use of unoccupied aerial systems (UAS)‐collected red, green, blue (RGB) imagery in conjunction with advanced deep learning and image ...

Abstract Fruit size, shape, color, and percent fruit rot are important quality traits for breeding cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.). Image analysis can be used to measure these traits, but affordable hardware for standardized image capture and integrated user‐friendly software pipelines are lacking.

Impact of global warming on potato late blight: risk, yield loss and control
The impact of climate warming on yield losses caused by potato late blight and on the need for disease control was studied by constructing models for timing late blight epidemics and a model of potato growth constrained by late blight.

Time course sensor‐based phenotyping can predict Ascochyta blight disease severity in Cicer species
Abstract Ascochyta blight is a widely occurring chickpea fungal disease that can cause severe yield loss. Breeding for crop resistance benefits from high‐throughput evaluation of plant–pathogen interactions in genotypes which can serve as sources of resistance.
