Fiscal Year
Description
UK AgTech Project 53706 RootDetect led by Airborne Robotics Limited (UK), will result in the development of a semi-autonomous remote sensing system that will efficiently scout large areas and identify clubroot symptoms earlier than the grower or agronomist. Affected areas in the field will then be mapped and linked to precision farming technology which will allow targeted treatment of infested patches. This will be cost effective for the grower and will minimise wastage and thus lower carbon emissions.
