Abstract

The architecture of the canopy tends to affect how light is reflected and distributed within it.Rational modelling and trimming can improve crop architecture, maximize the use of space, light, and resources such as land, and lay the groundwork for initial maturing, and maximum yield.Determining the interception of light inside the canopy is critical aimed at increasing the population's photosynthetic production.By implementing cultural practices that produce optimal plant populations and alter the plant canopy components, it is possible to maximize light utilization in the production of cotton.In order to forecast the expected yield for uses like crop management and agronomic decision-making, as well as to investigate potential impacts of environmental alteration on food security, crop growth models are used to estimate the correlation between plants and the environment.In this study, we highlight the light interception, canopy architecture and their use in crop growth models to improve crop productivity.Constructing a strong technological system capable of phenotyping crops in a high-throughput, multidimensional, large-data, efficient, and mechanically determining manner is the ultimate objective.
