The lab will provide: (i) automation and robotics in agriculture (practical work from the students aimed to project and set innovative yards for the different agricultural scenarios); (ii) analytical methodologies for the evaluation of nutrient solutions used in hydroponic cultivation systems and rapid chemical analysis of plant tissues; (iii) analysis of hyperspectral data to evaluate the response of plants to biotic and abiotic stresses: spectral indices, multivariate models for foliar trait retrieval, hyperspectral signatures.
