Abstract

A method of determining whether to treat soybeans for soybean aphids, the method includes collecting at least one image of a soybean canopy using one or more remote sensing instruments and processing the image into spectral reflectance data and selecting from the spectral reflectance data optimal spectral wavelength bands. The selected reflectance data is classified into one of a plurality of classification groupings using a machine learned classification model. To treat or not treat the soybean canopy for aphids is determined based on the classification of the reflectance data into one of the class groupings.
