method for predicting maize field yield, system for predicting maize field yield and computer readable storage medium

摘要

A method for predicting the yield of a maize field is presented. The method has the steps of positioning a digital camera at a defined distance above an average ear plane of a cornfield, capturing a digital image of a section of the cornfield, determining the area of the captured cornfield section, determining the total area of spikes in the digital image compared to the total area of the digital image, and determining the yield of the field from the total area of spikes in the digital image compared to the total area of the digital image with the determined area of the Captured corn field section, with the average grain weight of a spike, with a total field area and a calibration factor.
