Described herein are systems and methods for capturing images of a field and performing agricultural data analysis of the images. In one embodiment, a computer system for monitoring field operations includes a database for storing agricultural image data including images of at least one stage of crop development that are captured with at least one of an apparatus and a remote sensor moving through a field. The computer includes at least one processing unit that is coupled to the database. The at least one processing unit is configured to execute instructions to analyze the captured images, to determine relevant images that indicate a change in at least one condition of the crop development, and to generate a localized view map layer for viewing the field at the at least one stage of crop development based on at least the relevant captured images.

Repurpose Intelligence System for repurposing expired food stuffs and ensuring that locked-up nutrients in these expired food stuffs find their way into the supply chain so that their values is realized.

The present invention provides a screening method for selecting plant symbiotic microorganisms enabling plant growth under abiotic stress and/or biotic stress, a microbial mixture of microorganisms which are selected from nature by the method and enables a plant to grow under salinity stress and/or hyperosmotic stress in symbiosis with the plant. Specifically, the present invention provides a screening method for selecting plant symbiotic microorganisms, comprising a first screening step of allowing at least one plant to grow for a predetermined period of time while being partially soaked in a solution containing a microbial mixture under abiotic stress and/or biotic stress, and collecting microorganisms adhering to grown plant to thereby select out the microorganisms as plant symbiotic microorganisms enabling plant growth under the stress.

The present invention relates to a method for controlling of a growth cycle for a plant being arranged in a controlled environment and subject to light emitted by at least one artificial lighting arrangement. The invention also relates to a corresponding system device and to a computer program product.
