Deep Cost-sensitive Learning for Wheat Frost Detection [PDF]

, 2022
Frost damage is one of the main factors leading to wheat yield reduction. Therefore, the detection of wheat frost accurately and efficiently is beneficial for growers to take corresponding measures in time to reduce economic loss. To detect the wheat frost, in this paper we create a hyperspectral wheat frost data set by collecting the data ...

Low-N stress tolerant maize hybrids have higher fertilizer N recovery efficiency and reduced N-dilution in the grain compared to susceptible hybrids under low N conditions

Plant Production Science, 2020
Developing high yielding maize (Zea mays L.) varieties that have relatively high grain protein content under low nitrogen stress is critical to ensure food and nutrition security in sub-Saharan Africa. This study evaluated the efficiency for fertilizer N
