Location based grain quality data for crop input optimization use$2.0Mvalue2024start2029end

This project aims to develop an advance grain quality assessment system integrating machine vision and near-infrared technology to accurately evaluate visual and non-visual attributes of key crops like CWRS, CWAD, lentils, peas, barley and potentially canola. These quality assessments will be geo-located and mapped in real time to provide quality level insight into field performance. these quality maps can then be used, along with other field level assessments, to optimize crop input use.
