Abstract

Devices have been developed for measuring the reflectances of plants in the visible and near-IR regions. The results of measurements with contact and noncontact reflectometers on various plants of a home plot in the summertimes of 2010–12 are compared to clarify the advantages and disadvantages of the devices and possible ways of modernizing them.
