Measuring Leaf Area Index in Greenhouse Tomatoes with the CI‑202

Measuring Leaf Area Index in Greenhouse Tomatoes with the CI‑202

Leaf area index greenhouse tomatoes is a phrase that comes up often in discussions about crop vigor, light interception, and yield potential. In controlled environments like greenhouses, leaf area index, or LAI, becomes even more important because every management decision influences canopy structure. Growers and researchers need reliable ways to quantify leaf area without slowing… Continue reading…

CI‑110 Plant Canopy Imager vs Drone‑Based LAI Measurements: Which gives you more for your money?

CI‑110-Plant-Canopy-Imager-vs-Drone‑Based-LAI-Measurements

A plant canopy imager has become a core tool for crop scientists who want quick, reliable leaf area index (LAI) measurements in the field. Many research teams now debate whether handheld canopy instruments or drone-based LAI models offer better value. Both approaches collect important canopy structure data, but they differ in cost, accuracy, workflow, and… Continue reading…
