Abstract
An autonomous agricultural management system implementing closed-loop optimization through real-time sensor fusion and dynamic zone management. The system utilizes an autonomous robotic platform with multi-sensor arrays and variable-rate application capabilities, integrated with a base station for environmental monitoring. Machine learning algorithms process sensor data to optimize nutrient application, while cross-zone performance validation enables continuous system adaptation.
Claims10
A method for generating a nutrient management plan for crops in a field comprising:
- selecting high and low growth calibration points withing the field;
- obtaining high and low growth calibration point images;
- obtaining digital information associated with the crops while delivering nutrients to the crops in the field;
- processing the digital information;
- and
- updating the nutrient management plan based on the comparison.
3 more elements
A system for nutrient delivery comprising:
- a set of wheels;
- at least one storage tank for storing at least one nutrient for the nutrient delivery;
- a nutrient delivery component;
- a set of cameras;
- and
- a processor for storing and controlling the system for nutrient delivery to execute a nutrient delivery plan based on zoned methodology.
