This technical disclosure describes improvements that would be readily apparent to a Person Having Ordinary Skill In The Art (PHOSITA) when considered in combination with the foundational architecture disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 11,856,903.

Background and Problem Solved

The original patent disclosed methods for manipulating yield of plants and identifying yield genes, primarily focusing on long day and short day growing conditions. However, these methods are limited by their reliance on manual control and lack of real-time monitoring. The present invention addresses these limitations by introducing a holistic approach to precision yield control, leveraging advanced technologies to maximize yields while reducing environmental stressors.

Novelty and Inventive Step

The present invention's novelty lies in its integration of advanced technologies, such as machine learning, sensor networks, and precision agriculture, to create a holistic approach to precision yield control. The inventive step resides in the combination of these technologies to achieve unprecedented yields while minimizing environmental impact, thereby overcoming the limitations of the original patent.

Alternative Embodiments and Variations

Alternative embodiments of the invention may include variations in sensor types, machine learning algorithms, and nutrient delivery systems. Additionally, the invention could be adapted for use in different crop types, such as corn or wheat, or integrated with existing agricultural systems.

Potential Commercial Applications and Market

The present invention has significant commercial potential in the agricultural industry, enabling farmers to increase yields while reducing environmental impact. The market for precision agriculture is projected to grow significantly in the coming years, driven by increasing demand for sustainable and efficient farming practices. The invention's applications extend to various industries, including seed production, crop protection, and agricultural technology.
