Greenhouse cultivation promotes an efficient and environmentally friendly agricultural production model, significantly enhancing resource sustainability advancing sustainable agriculture. Traditional greenhouse pollination methods are inefficient labor-intensive, limiting the economic benefits of pear cultivation. To improve efficiency achieve fully automated mechanized operations, innovative design method for drones has been developed. First, criteria were extracted using Grounded Theory (GT), Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was employed to determine weight user demand evaluation indicators. Next, Quality Function Deployment (QFD) translated needs into technical requirements, resulting in final ranking element weights. The drone then designed based on these weighted rankings, yielding optimal solution. This quantifies functional requirements product, effectively identifying key proposing targeted solutions. Additionally, it provides a reference other highly machinery products.

During the operation of agricultural unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in orchards, presence power poles and wires pose a serious threat to flight safety, can even lead crashes. Due difficulty directly detecting wires, this research aimed quickly accurately detect wire poles, proposed an improved Yolov5s deep learning object detection algorithm named Yolov5s-Pole. The enhances model’s generalization ability robustness by applying Mixup data augmentation technique, replaces C3 module with GhostBottleneck reduce parameters computational complexity, incorporates Shuffle Attention (SA) improve its focus on small targets. results show that when Yolov5s-Pole model was used for accuracy, recall, mAP@50 were 0.803, 0.831, 0.838 respectively, which increased 0.5%, 10%, 9.2% compared original model. Additionally, weights, parameters, GFLOPs 7.86 MB, 3,974,310, 9, respectively. Compared model, these represent compression rates 42.2%, 43.4%, 43.3%, time single image using 4.2 ms, good under different lighting conditions (dark, normal, bright) demonstrated. is suitable deployment UAVs’ onboard equipment, great practical significance ensuring efficiency safety UAVs.

Strawberry (Fragaria x ananasa Duch.) is the most economically important soft fruit worldwide. While self- and wind-pollination possible for strawberry, without biotic pollination (animal pollinators, including artificial by humans) rate of strawberry flowers rarely exceeds 60% thus production decreased. At a time widely recognized decline pollinators increasing global demand balanced food, we need comprehensive understanding worldwide valuation these ecosystem services. In this paper, use transparent systematic review process to detect gaps in available literature. By applying multilevel meta-analytic models, quantified contribution different pollinator types fruits. Our showed that research on clearly concentrated European countries, with limited information Asia – largest producer. Additionally, detected disproportions across topics, stressing further preferences between cultivars occurrence managed wild bee communities. The overall estimate benefit crops average 25% reduction weight plants not receiving treatment. This similar regardless pollinating species. mean amount globally (2011–2020) receivable producers from purchasers due $5.36 billion per year. Moreover, demonstrated are dependent or set 43% fewer seeds (fertilized achenes) than biotically pollinated plants. Such huge seed can cause deformation reduce commercial value strawberries. Together, findings indicate critical role quality. To ensure services farms produce best-quality fruits, growers should take action sustain healthy communities utilize them optimal cultivar.

Abstract Field-based research in the biological sciences encounters several challenges, including cost, accessibility, safety, and spatial coverage. Drones have emerged as a transformative technology to address these challenges while providing less intrusive alternative field surveys. Although drones mainly been used for high-resolution image collection, their capabilities extend beyond mapping production. They can be tailored track wildlife, measure environmental parameters, collect physical samples, versatility enables researchers tackle variety of biodiversity conservation challenges. In this article, we advocate integrated more comprehensively into field-based research, from site reconnaissance sampling, interventions, monitoring. We discuss future innovations needed harness full potential, customized instrumentation, fit-for-purpose software apps, better integration with existing online databases. also support leveraging community scientists empowering citizens contribute scientific endeavors promoting stewardship via drones.
