The Reclassification of Agricultural Hill Parcels Utilizing Elevation Parameters

Abstract

The aim of our research is to elaborate a kind of cultivation system for agricultural areas cultivated in the Tard sub-unit of the Szentistván Agricultural Cooperative and then apply the methodology for five crop plants, in particular wheat, canola, barley, corn and sunflower. In the course of the investigation, the cooperative let us use 1700 hectares of cultivated area over twenty years, and as a result various terrain parameters for the yield of the parcels were examined. This was combined with multichannel imaging and used grading as a training calibration area. Using the elaborated methodology, we have created a plant-based production site qualification system that is suitable for optimizing the sowing area planned for similar conditions in the year calibration data. We will expand the methodology with soil and weather parameters in the future, adding new areas to the study.
