9. Långsiktiga effekter av växtföljd på avkastningen av vårsådd stråsäd
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production EcologyAbstract : En varierad växtföljd är en vanlig tillämpad strategi för att öka grödornas avkastning och effektiviteten i resursutnyttjande. Motsatsen till detta kallas att odla i monokultur. Odlingsförsök har visat att stråsäd odlad i monokultur producerar lägre avkastning jämfört med när den odlas i en varierad växtföljd. READ MORE

10. Time series analysis for spring barley phenology monitoring using Sentinel 2 – A case study of Southern-central Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Monitoring crop phenology at parcel scale aligns with the concept of precision agriculture (PA) and can provide invaluable information to agronomic management systems. Satellite time series data are commonly deployed for detecting crop growth stages, while the recent advancements in remote sensing (RS) technologies such as the launch of Sentinel 2 (S2) are providing unprecedented opportunities for crop monitoring.
