Using Innovative Technology to Assess In-Field Issues United Soybean Board

    • Natural Sciences

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) allow plant pathologists the opportunity to diagnose in-field issues, such as foliar diseases on soybean plants. This technology allows for advancements in precision agriculture, including field monitoring and assisted crop scouting. Xavier Phillips, plant pathology specialist with Syngenta and Ph.D. student at Iowa State University, discusses using various UAV technologies for foliar disease identification, quantification and impact determination. A recording of the webinar with slides can be found here.
