The olive tree can be considered the most symbolic tree of civilization and a part of the anthropized Mediterranean landscape [1]. Exploited at least since the Mesolithic [2] and cultivated for the production of oil at least since the Bronze Age in Sicily [3,4], it has a wide distribut...
Therefore, this paper proposes a model for diagnosing diseases in olive tree leaves using a hybrid technique that combines deep learning and clustering. The initial phase encompasses color correction, guaranteeing fidelity in the representation image to the next steps. Following this, the images ...
They are based on the application of a forced vibration of the tree canopy through the use of rods that cause the fruit to detach [14]. Canopy shakers are more flexible when used with more traditional varieties and in different types of olive orchards with appropriate pruning and training, ...
The final effluent is reused in olive tree irrigation but the major portion of effluent is discharged in the environment. Phase 2: Reuse. Several actors are involved in this action at local (Farmers/GDA), regional (CRDA) and central (DGGREE) level. Farmers are the users of treated ...
2.5. Structural Olive Tree Damage Caused by Mechanical Harvesting To calculate the structural damage caused to the olive trees by the straddle harvester, a novel methodology was designed based on the following factors: (i) the use of two LiDAR sensors in different orientations to compute the dens...
