Premise The nondestructive measurement of leaf area is important for expediting data
acquisition in the field. The Montgomery equation (ME) assumes that leaf area (A) is a …

Soybean is one of the ten greatest crops in the world, answering for billion-dollar businesses
every year. This crop suffers from insect herbivory that costs millions from producers. Hence …

A model for estimating the area of individual leaves (LA) by employing their dimensions was
developed for chrysanthemum. Further hypotheses were tested:(a) LA estimation is …

Salinity, one of the major environmental constraints, threatens soil health and consequently
agricultural productivity worldwide. Acacia auriculiformis, being a halophyte, offers diverse …

Recently, groundwater contamination has increased due to incorrect use of nitrogen
fertilizers so that it has caused public concern. To solve the problem, the most appropriate …

Artificial intelligence (AI) as a simulation approach is increasingly being used in precision
agriculture. The current study evaluated the performance of five methods for estimating …

Regression models to predict leaf area and leaf weight in cacao (Theobrama cacao L.) were
fitted using leaves from cultivated plants under nursery conditions and from plants of …

Leaf area is an important plant canopy structure parameter with important ecological
significance. Light detection and ranging technology (LiDAR) with the application of a …

Area (LA) estimation, based on individual leaf dimensions [length (L) and width (W)], was
addressed in olive tree. Ten cultivars exposed to two watering regimes (irrigated versus …

In this study, an image-analysis-based method is proposed to estimate the length and width
of plant leaves, some of which have concave tips and petiole insertions. Here, kiwifruit …
