Artificial intelligence in precision agriculture
Deadline March 28th
The Research Group on AgroICT & Precision Agriculture of the University of Lleida offers a PhD student position for one of its research projects.
The thesis will be based on the application of artificial intelligence techniques in the field of precision agriculture (in-field fruit detection, 3D canopy characterization, etc). The specific application within precision agriculture may be adjusted considering the needs of the project as well as the interests and skills of the candidate.

Precision Crop Protection in orchards for Precision Agriculture/Horticulture
Deadline March 28th
The Research Group on AgroICT & Precision Agriculture of the Universitat de Lleida / Agrotecnio-CERCA Center offers a PhD student position linked to one of its research projects.
The PhD thesis will focus on the following aspects related to pesticide spraying techniques in woody crops:
- Improve canopy characterization methods by means of laser scanners and remote sensing in order adjust pesticide dose rates accordingly.
- Apply a decision support system to adjust pesticide dose rates on a variable-rate approach.
- Use of regional and plot pest distribution maps in a selective or variable-rate spraying basis.
- Comparison of constant dose rate applications versus variable-rate applications performed with orchard sprayers.
