A review of optical methods for assessing nitrogen contents during rice growth
Concerns over the use of nitrogen have been increasing due to the high cost of fertilizers and environmental pollution caused by excess nitrogen applications in paddy fields. Several methods are available to assess the amount of nitrogen in crops. However, they are either expensive, time consuming,...
