Field spectroscopy for weed detection in wheat and chickpea fields (2013, background): “By significantly reducing the quantity of herbicide applied (Gerhards et al. 1997; Gerhards and Christensen 2003; Timmermann, Gerhards, and Kuehbauch 2003; Eddy et al. 2006; Slaughter, Giles, and Downey 2008; Weis et al. 2008), site-specific weed control and management could economically benefit…”
Multispectral classification of grass weeds and wheat (Triticum durum) using linear and nonparametric functional discriminant analysis and neural networks (2008, background): “The economic benefits of the patch spraying of broad-leaved and grass weeds in winter cereals (Timmermann et al., 2003), and of wild oat in winter barley (Barroso et al., 2004a; Ruiz et al., 2006) have supported the feasibility of using SSWM to control worldwide weeds.”
Precision Agriculture Technologies positively contributing to GHG emissions mitigation, farm productivity and economics (2017, unknown): “(2003) [113] found that the monetary savings resulting from the reduction in herbicide use varied between crops, depending on the amount of herbicides saved and the price of herbicide.”
Plant species identification using Elliptic Fourier leaf shape analysis (2006, background): “Spot control of weeds has the potential to reduce the amount of chemicals applied by as much as 80% for improved farm profitability and water quality (Timmermann et al., 2003).”
