Researchers develop sensors for continuous corn growth monitoring
When is the best time to apply nitrogen? What plant response was there to fertilizer or any number of other treatments? There is a general answer to those questions now, but what if plant breeders and agronomists could download data from continuously monitored cornstalks and ears to develop specific answers for those questions?
该传感器以食品级硅胶带和弹簧结构贴合茎秆与果穗,每10分钟更新一次直径数据,目前仅完成温室初测,下一步才进入田间试验,适用对象是育种家和农艺师而非大田农户。
