La información sobre el fenotipado de la uva es valiosa para la toma de decisiones, ya que proporciona características del dosel vegetal, la fenología de la planta y las características foliares, que influyen en gran medida en el estado sanitario de la vid. El fenotipado mediante inspecciones sobre el terreno requiere mucho tiempo y es laborioso. Sin embargo, los avances en teledetección, como el uso de vehículos aéreos no tripulados (UAV) con múltiples tipos de sensores a bordo, ofrecen una alternativa que ahorra tiempo y trabajo. En este sentido, las técnicas de visión por ordenador, conocidas como Computer Vision, como la detección y el seguimiento de objetos, entran en juego como herramientas de análisis de los conjuntos de datos adquiridos con los UAV o los vehículos terrestres no tripulados.

Agricultural run-off and subsurface drainage tiles transport a significant amount of nitrogen and phosphorus leached after fertilization. alchemia-nova GmbH in collaboration with University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna developed two multi-layer vertical filter systems to address the agricultural run-off issue, which has been installed on the slope of an agricultural field in Mistelbach, Austria. While another multi-layer addressing subsurface drainage water is implemented in Gleisdorf, Austria. The goal is to develop a drainage filter system to retain water and nutrients. Both multi-layer filter systems contain biochar and other substrates with adsorption properties of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus). The filter system can be of practical use if an excess of nutrients being washed out is of concern in the fields of the practitioner by keeping the surrounding waters clean. This approach may result in economic value by re-using the saturated biochar as fertilizer and improving the soil structure, thus increasing long-term soil fertility.

FACTSHEET NANOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES FOR NUTRIENT RECOVERY Key information Functionalized nanocellulose membranes can take up nitrate and phosphate. These membranes can be put in a water treatment unit. As the membranes are biobased, degradable materials, they can after use be added to the soil, thus returning the leached nutrients back for their original purpose providing fertilizers (nutrient recycling).
Because variables such as temperature and humidity have a profound effect on the activity of crop pests, diseases and natural enemies, the ability to monitor environmental conditions within a crop has always been important for crop protection.
