PhD Cycle XXXIV  
PhD project:"Implementation of a simplified and low-cost phenotyping platform for crop monitoring"

Research interests: My master's thesis was based on assessing the performances of remote sensing systems (drone and satellite) for crop monitoring and yield prediction in grapevine and potato crop. Currently, I’m involved in additional projects with my research group mainly based on the use of remote and proximal sensing technologies for the early detection of disease on grapevine and wheat and for monitoring nitrogen uptake of wheat plants in open field.

The main aim of my PhD is the implementation of an automatic and low-cost phenotyping platform for monitoring the crop responses to different environmental stresses.

Profile

I am Riccardo Rossi. I was born on 17/12/1993 in Montevarchi (AR). I graduated at the University of Florence where I obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Agricultural Sciences in 2016 and a Master’s Degree in Agricultural Sciences and Technologies in 2018 (110 cum laude/110).

I attended the “Erasmus + Geonatura Project - Open educational resources platform for geomatics applications to social and environmental issues” at the University of Glasgow-Scotland, Glasgow (United Kingdom) and the “INTERNATIONAL SUMMER SCHOOL Agmnet+” in “Agrometeorology and crop modelling” – “SERBIA FOR EXCELL” Project at the University of Novi Sad – Faculty of Agriculture, Novi Sad (Serbia).
