About
Dr. L. McClymont is a leading researcher in precision horticulture, specializing in the application of advanced sensing technologies to optimize fruit production. Their work centers on using the Green Atlas *Cartographer*—a mobile platform for high-throughput phenotyping—to investigate the complex, orchard-specific relationships between tree geometry, fruit number, clustering, size, and color in commercial apples and pears. McClymont’s major contribution lies in demonstrating how automated, field-based data collection can replace manual measurements, enabling growers to make real-time, data-driven decisions for improved yield and quality. Their 2023 study, presented at the prestigious XXXI International Horticultural Congress, has already garnered 6 citations, highlighting its immediate relevance to the precision agriculture community. By bridging the gap between robotics, digital horticulture, and practical orchard management, McClymont is helping to shape a future where every tree’s unique characteristics are understood and managed for maximum productivity. Their work is essential reading for students and researchers interested in the intersection of sensor technology, plant phenotyping, and sustainable fruit production.
