Manual or visual inspection of crop damage and coverage is subjective and prone to human error. Standardizing the quantification of physiological stress and biomass distribution allows for precise agricultural interventions.

Sub-optimal application of agricultural products due to imprecise boundary definitions and threshold values. Correcting these inaccuracies prevents resource waste and localized crop under-treatment.

Suboptimal scheduling of agricultural interventions leads to reduced efficacy and resource waste. Precise timing based on genetic and environmental variables prevents crop loss and minimizes chemical over-application.
