Usage a method of image analysis for assessment of cereals coverage in terms of ecological agriculture
KEPL, Lukáš
Determination of the cover of plants is important, both in terms of assessing the situation and crop canopy, and also in terms of weed infestation of cultivated plants. Thesis deals with the usefulness of new methods for the determination of coverage by using computer technology. The literature review presents the characteristics of weeds, options and methods for their control. In organic farming is a big emphasis on prevention, which is a fundamental measure in plant protection. Regulate the density of weed plants is very important in terms of competitive ability and productivity of plants, which obviously affects the yield. The results of this analysis process and practical implementation methods for image analysis and comparison of this method of estimation method. Experiments were carried out under organic farming conditions in cereals respectively in stands of different types of spring wheat. In comparison with the estimate using the image analysis appears promising method that can be applied in practice in determining cover.

Would the phenomenon of organic farming boom and flourish even without the generous support of subsidies?
Mojžíšová, Radka ; Slavíková, Lenka (advisor) ; Jílková, Jiřina (referee)
This bachelor thesis should answer this question: Would the phenomenon of organic farming boom and flourish even without the generous support of subsidies? Would there still be an interest in existing in this field even without pump-priming done by the state and by the European Union? Would the mere desire to live more healthily be enough for organic farmers? We will examine the growth in popularity of organic food which is illustrated by the existence of 2000 organic farms in the Czech Republic and also by the supply of organic food in shops. The theoretical part deals with the explanation of the term "organic farming". Attention also will be paid to legal regulations because organic farming in the Czech Republic is defined by Act No 242/2000 coll. on organic farming, by MoA Decree 16/2006 coll., by Commission Regulation (EC) No 889/2008, by Council Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 on organic production which came into effect on January 1, 2009. The thesis also deals with Common Agricultural Policy of the European Union between 2007 and 2013, the Action Plan of the Czech Republic for the Development of Organic Farming and principles of subsidisation in the year 2009. The practical part will be focused on results on economic analysis at approximately 3 farms which are specialised in bull or goat production.
