摘要：The systematic use of plant protection products is now being called into question with the growing awareness of the risks they can represent for the environment and human health. The application of precision agriculture technologies helps to improve agricultural production but also to rationalize input costs and improve ecological footprints. Here we present a study on fungicide application efficiency and its impact on the grass quality of a golf course green using the free open-source image analysis software FIJI (Image J) to analyze ground RGB (high-resolution digital cameras) and multispectral aerial imagery in combination with experimental data of spray pressure and hydraulic slot nozzle size of a boom sprayer machine. The multivariate regression model best explained variance in the normalized green-red difference index (NGRDI) as a relevant indicator of healthy turfgrass fields from the aerial, ground, and machine data set.
