Multi-species Cover Crop Biomass Evaluation Using a Hand-held Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) Sensor and Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) Sensor

Cover crops are essential in agricultural management and especially in organic farming for protecting the soil from erosion, competing with weeds, preventing evaporative losses and improving soil quality and fertility. The choice of cover crop species is crucial in achieving the highest level of weed suppression and soil fertility enhancement. Cover crop systems with rye or mixtures of legumes ...

Laboratory evaluation of the GreenSeekerTM handheld optical sensor to variations in orientation and height above canopy

Handheld optical sensors recently have been introduced to the agricultural market. These handheld sensors are able to provide operators with Normalized Difference Vegetative Index (NDVI) data when cloud cover prevents acquisition of satellite or aerial images. This research addressed the sensitivity of the GreenSeeker handheld optical sensor to changes in orientation and height above a ryegrass...
