Abstract
A method for weed management is provided. The method may comprise collecting image data of a plantation field after being applied with a primary weed control technique. The method may further include recognizing items indicative of an occurrence of a weed in the collected image data. The method may further include generating a weed pressure map indicative of a weed pressure in the plantation field. The method may further include determining one or a plurality of target areas for weed management in the generated weed pressure map and outputting a treatment control signal, which, when transmitted, causes an activation of at least one weed treatment device to apply at least one secondary weed control technique to the one or the plurality of determined target areas, wherein the at least one secondary weed control technique is different from the primary weed control technique.
