Four wavelengths of 550 nm, 560 nm, 680 nm and 740 nm were
important for detecting the spectral differences among mite infested
cotton plants treated with various rate of Temprano..
We will soon learn more about advantages and disadvantages of different remote
sensing systems lead to development of more specialized systems
Calibration, correction methods, and data filtering must be included to increase the
robustness and sensitivity of reflectance based classifications
The importance of crop fertilization and crop health should be viewed in the context
of pest prevention.
