NRate.farm — Smart Nitrogen Calculator for Farmers

German farmers applying nitrogen fertilizer face a compound decision problem: agronomic yield targets, volatile input costs, real-time grain prices, and mandatory DüV (Düngeverordnung) regulatory constraints must all be reconciled simultaneously. Existing tools either ignore economics (yield-only models) or ignore regulations (simple calculators). No publicly available, free tool combined marginal revenue analysis with DüV compliance, regional soil/climate data, and multi-crop support in one production-ready interface — leaving farmers to make high-stakes fertilization decisions with incomplete information.

GrowController: IoT Environmental Monitor

Monitoring environmental conditions in controlled growing environments requires real-time data collection, alerting, and historical analysis. Commercial solutions are expensive and inflexible.

GPU-Accelerated Synthetic Data Generation for Crop Phenotyping

Field annotation and manual labeling for machine learning are prohibitively expensive and time-consuming. Overlapping canopies in intercropping systems create ambiguous segmentation boundaries. Real-world datasets lack ground-truth labels for individual plant structures, limiting supervised learning approaches for precision phenotyping.
