Resum
Wheat grain quality characteristics have experienced increasing attention as a central factor affecting wheat end-use products quality and human health. Nonetheless, in the last decades a reduction in grain quality has been observed. Therefore, it is central to develop efficient quality-related phenotyping tools. In this sense, one of the most relevant wheat
features related to grain quality traits is grain nitrogen content, which is directly linked to grain protein content and monitorable with remote sensing approaches. Moreover, the relation between nitrogen fertilization and grain nitrogen content (protein) plays a central role in the sustainability of agriculture. Both aiming to develop efficient phenotyping tools
using remote sensing instruments and to advance towards a field-level efficient and sustainable monitoring of grain nitrogen status, this paper studies the efficacy of various sensors, multispectral and visible red–greenblue (RGB), at different scales, ground and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and phenological stages (anthesis and grain filling) to estimate grain nitrogen content. Linear models were calculated using vegetation indices at
each sensing level, sensor type and phenological stage. Furthermore, this study explores the up-scalability of the best performing model to satellite level Sentinel-2 equivalent data. We found that models built at the phenological stage of anthesis with UAV-level multispectral cameras using red-edge bands outperformed grain nitrogen content estimation
(R2 = 0.42, RMSE = 0.18%) in comparison with those models built with RGB imagery at ground and aerial level, as well as with those built with widely used ground-level multispectral sensors. We also demonstrated the possibility to use UAV-built multispectral linear models at the satellite scale to determine grain nitrogen content effectively (R2 = 0.40, RMSE = 0.29%) at actual wheat fields
