Abstract
This paper presents a high-throughput method for Above Ground Estimation of Biomass (AGBE) in rice using multispectral near-infrared (NIR) imagery captured at different scales of the crop. By developing an integrated aerial crop monitoring solution using an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), our approach calculates 7 vegetation indices that…

Increasing homogeneity in global food supplies and the implications for food security
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/42297
Abstract
The narrowing of diversity in crop species contributing to the world’s food supplies has been considered a potential threat to food security. However, changes in this diversity have not been quantified globally. We assess trends over the past 50 y in the richness, abundance, and composition of crop species in national food supplies…
