From UAV Imagery to Agronomic Reasoning: A Multimodal LLM Benchmark for Plant Phenotyping
Researchers have developed PlantXpert, a multimodal AI benchmark for evaluating vision-language models on agricultural phenotyping tasks for soybean and cotton. The benchmark tests 11 state-of-the-art models across disease detection, pest control, weed management, and yield prediction, revealing that fine-tuned models achieve up to 78% accuracy but struggle with complex reasoning and cross-crop generalization.
