Disclosed herein are methods, devices, modules, and systems which may be employed to accurately track, and subsequently target, objects of interest relative to a moving body, such as a vehicle. An object tracking method may be implemented by a detection system with a sensor coupled to the moving body. A targeting system may be used to target objects tracked by the detection system, such as for automated crop cultivation or maintenance. Devices disclosed herein may be configured to locate, identify, and autonomously target a weed with a beam, such as a laser beam, which may burn or irradiate the weed. The methods, devices, modules, and systems may be used for agricultural crop management or for at-home weed control.

The invention discloses a method of rapid generation-adding breeding of rice in the technical field of rice breeding, including soaking seeds of the rice, germination, seedlings cultivation, managing and regulating of the rice at the growth stage, and harvesting the rice. The managing and regulating the rice at the growth stage includes dynamic light quality and photoperiod control in vegetative growth period, heading period and pustulation period; growth period involves light environment regulation with the ratio of red light:blue light:white light of 0.8-1:0.8-1:1.0, photoperiod of 16-18 h; heading period involves light environment regulation with the ratio of red light:blue light:white light of 1-2:0.5-1:1, photoperiod of 12-13.5 h; and pustulation period includes light environment regulation with the ratio of red light:blue light:white light of 1-2:1:1, photoperiod of 16-18 h.

A system and method for selecting plants based on climate data and plant data. The system receives climate data and plant data and selects plants for a geographical division based on the climate data and plant data. The system generates durable plant tags with for the plants that have an icon that identifies the lighting level and watering level of the plants using a color and a number.

The present invention relates to a photovoltaic facility (1) comprising a solar tracker (2) and at least one square or rectangular photovoltaic panel (3) mounted on the solar tracker (2), this solar tracker (2) enabling the inclination of the photovoltaic panel (3) to be varied with respect to the horizontal, so that two opposite edges of the photovoltaic panel, referred to as horizontal edges (31), are always horizontal whatever the inclination of the photovoltaic panel (3).

This facility is characterised in that it comprises at least one gutter (4) for recovering rainwater, in that this gutter (4) is mounted along one of the two horizontal edges (31) of the photovoltaic panel (3) using at least two anchoring devices (5), to which it is suspended, so that it can oscillate under the action of its own weight, about a horizontal axis of rotation (Y-Y′), so as to remain horizontal whatever the inclination of the photovoltaic panel (3).

The present invention provides a longitudinally split immature tiller separated from a rhizome (LSITR), a cluster of multiple in vitro shoots (CMIT), a cluster of stem segments containing shoot primordia (CSSSP) and an in vitro tiller of Miscanthus x giganteus (Giant miscanthus), and their uses in propagating Miscanthus x giganteus (Giant miscanthus).

An apparatus for cultivating plants may include a cabinet having a cultivation space; a door that opens and closes the cultivation space; at least one bed disposed in the cultivation space and on which plants are cultivated; at least one light assembly that radiates light for photosynthesis toward the at least one bed; a water tank that stores water to be supplied to the at least one bed; a machine compartment separated from the cultivation space at a lower portion in the cabinet, that communicates with an outside of the apparatus, and that accommodates a compressor and a condenser forming a cooling cycle for controlling a temperature of the cultivation space; an air duct that connects the machine compartment and the cultivation space and guides air in the machine compartment to the cultivation space; and a return duct that connects the cultivation space and the machine compartment and guides air in the cultivation space to the machine compartment.

A method of pollinating a plant: flying an unmanned aerial vehicle above the plant and generating a thrust that contacts the plant, that produces a sound pressure level of at least 6×10.sup.−5 Pascal at the plant, and that produces a frequency that induces the plant to release pollen.
