A method and system for producing a plant-based image includes receiving a source image; screening the source image into a set of picture elements; and producing raster data indicating at least a type or density of seeds or plants to plant for each picture element.

Described herein are systems and methods for agricultural data analysis. In one embodiment, a computer system for monitoring field operations includes a database for storing agricultural data including yield and field data and at least one processing unit that is coupled to the database. The at least one processing unit is configured to execute instructions to monitor field operations, to store agricultural data, to automatically determine whether at least one correlation between different variables or parameters of the agricultural data exceeds a threshold, and to perform analysis of the agricultural data to identify a category of man-made issues or other issues that have potentially caused the correlation when at least one correlation occurs between different variables or parameters of the agricultural data.

The present disclosure provides novel compositions and methods of forming those compositions by complexing a micronutrient with at least two organic acids, preferably in the presence of a base to form an aqueous formulation. Compositions comprising the complexed micronutrient are tank mix compatible and can be used to deliver a water-soluble source of the particular micronutrient to plants (e.g., corn plants), with foliar application being particularly preferred.

The multifunctional agricultural machine includes a vehicle body with a plurality of wheels rotatably mounted thereon. At least one sensor is mounted on a front end of the vehicle body for measuring at least one soil condition. At least one soil excavation unit is mounted on the vehicle body for digging a hole in the soil. A seed tank is in communication with the at least one soil excavation unit for delivering a selectable number of seeds thereto. The at least one soil excavation unit is configured to drop the selectable number of seeds into the hole in the soil. A water tank is in fluid communication with the at least one soil excavation unit for delivering a selectable volume of water thereto. The at least one soil excavation unit is further configured to dispense the selectable volume of water in the hole in the soil.

The invention relates to a method for cultivating row crops (200), comprising the following steps: sensor and satellite based recording of locations and/or courses of rows of plants (202a-202l ) while a first cultivation measure is carried out on a row crop (200) by means of an agricultural plant cultivation device (10) and controlling the movement and/or operation of an agricultural plant cultivation device (10) while a second cultivation measure is carried out on the row crop (200) based on the recorded locations and/or courses of the rows of plants (202a-2021).

A cultivation method based on an optimization of a plant nitrogen fertilizer disclosure amount includes: selecting plants to be planted in this batch, recording a number of the plants planted this time, and preparing different parts of nitrogen fertilizer for individual plants, each part of the nitrogen fertilizer being 10 g; and planting the same batch of plants every Monday with an interval of one week and fertilizing the planted plants in the second week after planting. According to the cultivation method based on the optimization of the plant nitrogen fertilizer disclosure amount, by adopting a mode of more tests and less planting, consumed plant seedlings are correspondingly reduced when a worker calculates an optimal fertilizer disclosure amount, thus effectively avoiding excessive waste, making a cost of a subsequent use cheaper, bringing a help to a whole experiment, and enabling people to use the method more conveniently.

A system includes a motor, a memory storing instructions and at least one controller configured to execute the instructions to cause the system to obtain at least one message over a network, the at least one message indicating a target position for a rotor of the motor and a target time associated with the target position, determine a position command and a speed command based on the target position and the target time, and control the motor based on the position command and the speed command.

A device detects a trigger to dispense a product at a using a tool operably coupled to a tractor. The device determines whether the tractor is in an automated mode, the automated mode enabling autonomous speed and direction navigation of the tractor. Responsive to determining that the tractor is not in the automated mode, the device determines whether the tool is in a ready state, and responsive to determining that the tool is in the ready state, commands the tool to dispense the product, wherein the tool is not commanded to dispense the product until the tool is in the ready state. Responsive to determining that the tractor is in the automated mode, the device commands the tool to dispense the product without determining whether the tool is in the ready state.

A device detects a trigger to dispense a product at a dispense point using a tool operably coupled to a tractor. In response to detecting the trigger, the device determines a delay time between commanding the tool to dispense the product and the product actually being dispensed, and determines a release point based on operating parameters of the tractor, the release point being a point at which the tractor is predicted to be an amount of time away from the dispense point equal to the delay time. The device determines that the tractor has reached the release point, and commands the tool to dispense the product, where the product reaches the dispense point based on the delay time.

A spraying support system for a working machine, includes: a support device including a plan creator portion to create a spraying plan representing a relation between field information relating to a field to which spray substance is sprayed and spraying information including spraying amount of the spray substance; a plan obtainer device provided to a working machine having a sprayer device to spray the spray substance and configured to obtain the spraying plan created by the plan creator portion; and a spraying controller device to control a sprayer portion of the sprayer device based on the spraying information of the spraying plan obtained by the plan obtainer device.
