Abstract
As a farming machine travels through a field of plants, the farming machine accesses an image of a field including a plant and receives sensor signals from one or more sensors coupled to the farming machine. The farming machine applies the image and sensor signals to a computer model to determine a spatial relationship between a treatment mechanism of the farming machine and the plant. Determining the spatial relationship produces an uncertainty measurement for an expected position of the treatment mechanism respective to an expected position of the plant. The farming machine adjusts a treatment buffer based on the uncertainty measurement. The farming machine treats the plant in the field by applying the plant treatment to the plant based on the treatment buffer.
