Hyperspectral imaging in agricultural crop research

We are pleased to announce a recent article authored by Dr Marcin Siłuch, Dr Piotr Bartmiński and Prof. Dr hab. Waldemar Kociuba academics from Department of Geology, Soil Science and Geoinformation UMCS. The article was published in the journal Applied Sciences:

Siłuch Marcin, Anna Siedliska, Piotr BartmińskiWaldemar Kociuba, Piotr Baranowski, Jaromir Krzyszczak. 2023. "The Impact of Water Availability on the Discriminative Status of Nitrogen (N) in Sugar Beet and Celery Using Hyperspectral Imaging Methods" Applied Sciences 13, no. 10: 6072. https://doi.org/10.3390/app13106072 

The study undertaken, on the basis of a vase experiment, determined the effect of water availability on nitrogen status in sugar beet and celery leaves. Hyperspectral imaging was used for analysis.
Statistical parameters were used to distinguish nitrogen concentrations in plants at different levels of water availability, obtaining accuracies of up to 80% for the developed models. In addition, characteristic electromagnetic wavelengths were identified in which a signal correlated with nitrogen and water content in plants could be recorded.
