- Abstract : Core Ideas: Interdisciplinary efforts in high‐throughput field phenotyping Linking proximal and remote field phenotyping Cyberinfrastructure for high‐throughput field phenotyping Plant breeding and agronomy are labor‐intensive sciences, and the success of these disciplines is critical to meet planetary challenges of food and water security for the world's growing population. Recent gains in sensor technology, remote sensing, robotics and autonomy, big data analytics, and genomics are being adopted by agricultural scientists for high‐throughput phenotyping, precision agriculture, and crop‐scouting platforms. These technological gains are ushering in an era of digital agriculture that should greatly enhance the capacity of plant breeders and agronomists. This report encompasses the priorities and recommendations that emerged from two USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA)‐funded Big Data Driven Agriculture workshops held on 26–27 Feb. 2018 in Arlington, VA. The objectives of the workshops were to bring together diverse subject‐matter experts in the represented disciplines of plant breeding, machine learning, remote sensing, and big data infrastructure and analytics to (i) explore how large and comprehensive datasets in plant breeding, genomics, remote sensing, and analytics will benefit agriculture; (ii) discuss strategies for creating a successful field phenotyping campaign and to determine protocols for the collection and analysis of agriculturalAbstract : Core Ideas: Interdisciplinary efforts in high‐throughput field phenotyping Linking proximal and remote field phenotyping Cyberinfrastructure for high‐throughput field phenotyping Plant breeding and agronomy are labor‐intensive sciences, and the success of these disciplines is critical to meet planetary challenges of food and water security for the world's growing population.
