Pitaya fruit is a significant agricultural commodity in southern China. The traditional method of determining the ripeness pitaya by humans inefficient, it therefore utmost importance to utilize precision agriculture and smart farming technologies order accurately identify fruit. In achieve rapid recognition targets natural environments, we focus on maturity as research object. During growth process, undergoes changes its shape color, with each stage exhibiting characteristics. Therefore, divided into four stages according different levels, namely Bud, Immature, Semi-mature Mature, have designed lightweight detection classification network for recognizing based YOLOv8n algorithm, GSE-YOLO (GhostConv SPPELAN-EMA-YOLO). specific methods include replacing convolutional layer backbone model, incorporating attention mechanisms, modifying loss function, implementing data augmentation. Our improved model achieved accuracy 85.2%, recall rate 87.3%, an F1 score 86.23, mAP50 90.9%, addressing issue false or missed intricate environments. experimental results demonstrate that our enhanced has attained commendable level discerning ripeness, which positive impact advancement technologies.

This study explores spectroscopy in the 350 to 2500 nm range for detecting powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator) grapevine leaves, crucial precision agriculture and sustainable vineyard management. In a controlled experimental setting, spectral reflectance on leaves with varying infestation levels was measured using FieldSpec 4 spectroradiometer during July September. A detailed assessment conducted following guidelines recommended by European Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (EPPO) quantify level of infestation; categorising into five distinct grades based percentage leaf surface area affected. Subsequently, data were collected contact probe tungsten halogen bulb connected spectroradiometer, taking three measurements across different areas each leaf. Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) analysis yielded coefficients determination R2 = 0.74 0.71, Root Mean Square Errors (RMSEs) 12.1% 12.9% calibration validation datasets, indicating high accuracy early disease detection. Significant differences noted between healthy infected especially around 450 700 visible light, 1050 nm, 1425 1650 2250 near-infrared spectrum, likely due tissue damage, chlorophyll degradation water loss. Finally, Powdery Mildew Vegetation Index (PMVI) introduced, calculated as PMVI (R755 − R675)/(R755 + R675), where R755 R675 are reflectances at 755 (NIR) 675 (red), effectively estimating severity (R2 0.7). The demonstrates that spectroscopy, combined PMVI, provides reliable, non-invasive method managing promoting healthier vineyards through practices.

Innovations in precision agriculture enhance complex tasks, reduce environmental impact, and increase food production cost efficiency. One of the main challenges is ensuring rapid information availability for autonomous vehicles standardizing processes across platforms to maximize interoperability. The lack drone technology standardisation, communication barriers, high costs, post-processing requirements sometimes hinder their widespread use agriculture. This research introduces a standardized data fusion framework creating real-time spatial variability maps using images from different Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) Site-Specific Crop Management (SSM). Two interpolation methods were used (Inverse Distance Weight, IDW, Triangulated Irregular Networks, TIN), selected computational efficiency input flexibility. proposed can UAV image sources offers versatility, speed, efficiency, consuming up 98 % less time, energy, computing than standard photogrammetry techniques, providing field information, allowing edge incorporation into acquisition phase. Experiments conducted Spain, Serbia, Finland 2022 under H2020 FlexiGroBots project demonstrated strong correlation between results this method those techniques (up r = 0.93). In addition, with Sentinel 2 satellite was as that obtained photogrammetry-based orthomosaics 0.8). approach could support irrigation leak detection, soil parameter estimation, weed management, integration
