Soil nitrogen is the key parameter supporting plant growth and development; it is also the material basis of plant growth. An accurate grasp of soil nitrogen information is the premise of scientific fertilization in precision agriculture, where near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is widely used for rapid detection of soil nutrients. In this study, the variation law of soil NIR reflectivity spectra with soil particle sizes was studied. Moreover, in order to precisely study the effect of particle size on soil nitrogen detection by NIR, four different spectra preprocessing methods and five different chemometric modeling methods were used to analyze the soil NIR spectra. The results showed that the smaller the soil particle sizes, the stronger the soil NIR reflectivity spectra. Besides, when the soil particle sizes ranged 0.18–0.28 mm, the soil nitrogen prediction accuracy was the best based on the partial least squares (PLS) model with the highest Rp2 of 0.983, the residual predictive deviation (RPD) of 6.706. The detection accuracy was not ideal when the soil particle sizes were too big (1–2 mm) or too small (0–0.18 mm). In addition, the relationship between the mixing spectra of six different soil particle sizes and the soil nitrogen detection accuracy was studied. It was indicated that the larger the gap between soil particle sizes, the worse the accuracy of soil nitrogen detection. In conclusion, soil nitrogen detection precision was affected by soil particle sizes to a large extent. It is of great significance to optimize the pre-treatments of soil samples to realize rapid and accurate detection by NIR spectroscopy.

The introduction of unmanned-aerial-vehicle remote sensing for collecting high-spatial- and temporal-resolution imagery to derive crop-growth indicators and analyze and present timely results could potentially improve the management of agricultural businesses and enable farmers to apply appropriate solution, leading to a better food-security framework. This study aimed to analyze crop-growth indicators such as the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), crop height, and vegetated surface roughness to determine the growth of corn crops from planting to harvest. Digital elevation models and orthophotos generated from the data captured using multispectral, red/green/blue, and near-infrared sensors mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle were processed and analyzed to calculate the various crop-growth indicators. The results suggest that remote sensing-based growth indicators can effectively determine crop growth over time, and that there are similarities and correlations between the indicators.
