    摘要: Turf management systems and methods to manage turf in a work region divided into a plurality of zones. Multiple sets of zone sensor data are associated with a different zone and monitored. A set of zone sensor data is provided as an input to a predictive turf model for each zone and an estimated turf condition is determined for each zone based on an output of the predictive turf model. Further, a recommended action (or no action) is generated based on the estimated turf condition. The recommended action (or no action) may be generated by a suggestion model. Either of the predictive turf model or the suggestion model can be updated based on measured/observed turf condition compared to desired turf condition.

    摘要: A vegetation effect calculation device includes: a memory configured to store instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: acquire a moisture content of a slope, a relational expression between the moisture content and an adhesion of soil in the slope, and a vegetation adhesion that is an adhesion of vegetation abundantly growing in the slope; calculate a correction value, using the acquired moisture content of the slope, and the acquired relational expression between the moisture content and the adhesion of the soil; and calculate a corrected vegetation adhesion, using the acquired vegetation adhesion, and the calculated correction value.

    摘要: The inventive subject matter provides a method for the incorporation of colored photoluminescent materials to be sprayed on to plants and soils. The incorporation of colored photoluminescent materials assists the spray operator through the use of black lights allowing for more precise low right or nighttime spray and seeding operations. More specifically, this invention relates to a colored photoluminescent adjuvant to be applied to targeted crops, plants and seeds to assist in the low light or nighttime application of bioactive agents, such as chemicals and pesticides. The colored photoluminescent adjuvant can be applied as a solution or a foam.

    摘要: A garden tool includes a power assembly and a handle assembly. The handle assembly has a start key electrically connected with the power assembly and a cover capable of at least partially shielding the start key. The cover is configured to be moved from a closed position to an opened position under driving of external force so as to operate the start key. A reset member is located between the cover and the handle assembly, the reset member being capable of driving the cover to the closed position.

    摘要: A turf surface 80 comprising: (a) a reinforcing root-permeable mat 10; (b) a removable root-permeable backing 60 located beneath the reinforcing root-permeable mat 10; (c) a layer of growth media 42 located on the reinforcing root-permeable mat 10; and (d) natural grass plants 30 having roots 32 extending downwardly through the layer of growth media 42 and the reinforcing root-permeable mat 10 and the removable root-permeable backing 60; wherein, in use, prior to being laid at a destination site, the removable root-permeable backing 60 is separated from the reinforcing root-permeable mat 10, so that any roots 34 which engage with and extend through the removable root-permeable backing 60 are substantially removed from the turf surface 80.
