Online Coverage Planning for an Autonomous Weed Mowing Robot with Curvature Constraints [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The land used for grazing cattle takes up about one-third of the land in the United States. These areas can be highly rugged. Yet, they need to be maintained to prevent weeds from taking over the nutritious grassland. This can be a daunting task especially in the case of organic farming since herbicides cannot be used.

Toward Robotic Weed Control: Detection of Nutsedge Weed in Bermudagrass Turf Using Inaccurate and Insufficient Training Data [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 To enable robotic weed control, we develop algorithms to detect nutsedge weed from bermudagrass turf. Due to the similarity between the weed and the background turf, manual data labeling is expensive and error-prone. Consequently, directly applying deep learning methods for object detection cannot generate satisfactory results.

Measuring specialty crop grower willingness to pay for genetic modification and genetic editing
Agribusiness, EarlyView.Abstract In contrast to the widespread adoption of agricultural commodities modified using biotechnology, the adoption rate of bioengineered specialty crops by growers remains low. The use of bioengineered crops has been controversial since their introduction in the 1990s due to concerns about their potentially harmful effects to human health, the ...

Investigating image-based fallow weed detection performance on Raphanus sativus and Avena sativa at speeds up to 30 km h$^{-1}$ [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Site-specific weed control (SSWC) can provide considerable reductions in weed control costs and herbicide usage. Despite the promise of machine vision for SSWC systems and the importance of ground speed in weed control efficacy, there has been little investigation of the role of ground speed and camera characteristics on weed detection performance ...

The effect of intercropping on weed infestation of a spring barley crop cultivated in monoculture
Acta Agrobotanica, 2012 This paper presents the results of a study carried out in the years 2005-2007 in the Bezek Experimental Farm near the city of Chełm, Poland, on heavy mixed rendzina soil. The effect of intercropping, using red clover (cv.
