“…For example, UAVs have been used for physiological and geometric plant characterization ( Zhang et al, 2020 ; Meiyan et al, 2022 ), as well as for pest and disease classification ( Dai et al, 2020 ; Xia et al, 2021 ) and resistant weed identification ( Eide et al, 2021a ). In addition, remote sensing imagery is linked to specific farm problems through deep learning for the identification of biological and non-biological stresses in crops ( Francesconi et al, 2021 ; Ishengoma et al, 2021 ; Jiang et al, 2021 ; Zhou et al, 2021 ), segmentation, and classification ( He et al, 2021 ; Osco et al, 2021 ; Vong et al, 2021 ). These studies show that the combination of UAV remote sensing and deep learning provides the scope for large-scale resistant weed evaluation ( Krähmer et al, 2020 ; Wang et al, 2022 ).…”
