Rouverson Pereira da Silva holds a degree in Agricultural Engineering from the Federal University of Lavras (1990), a master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Federal University of Uberlândia (1995), a Ph.D. in Agronomy (Crop Production) from UNESP (2002), and a Livre-Docência in Agricultural Machinery and Mechanization from UNESP (2010). In 2017, he completed a senior internship at the University of Georgia (USA), funded by CAPES.Currently, he is an Associate Professor III at UNESP/Jaboticabal and a CNPq Research Productivity Fellow (Level 1-C). Additionally, he serves as the Latin America and Caribbean Representative for the International Society of Precision Agriculture (ISPA), Executive Director of the Latin American and Caribbean Association of Agricultural Engineering, and Director of International Relations for the Brazilian Association of Agricultural Engineers.He is a member of key committees, including the Brazilian Commission on Precision and Digital Agriculture of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Food Supply, the Evaluation Committee for the Tractor and Machine of the Year Awards/Brazil, and the Fiscal Council of the Brazilian Association of Agricultural Engineering. Throughout his career, he has published 276 articles in scientific journals, 11 books, and 38 book chapters, in addition to over 550 papers in conference proceedings and technical journals, as well as participating in numerous scientific events in Brazil and abroad.With extensive experience in mentoring new researchers, he has supervised 21 doctoral theses, 31 master's dissertations, and 160 undergraduate research and final-year projects in Agricultural Engineering and Agronomy. He also serves as an ad hoc reviewer for several scientific journals.His research focuses on Agricultural Engineering, with an emphasis on Agricultural Machinery and Mechanization, Digital Agriculture, and Precision Agriculture. He develops studies on mechanized harvesting systems for crops such as coffee, sugarcane, peanuts, and cereals, as well as quality control in mechanized agricultural operations. He is one of the pioneers in research on mechanized peanut harvesting in Brazil. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Sustainable agriculture in 21st century will face major challenges being mandatory to assimilate new technologies to increase agricultural productivity and sustainability. digital agriculture is a key technology to face those challenges that includes multiresolution remote sensing, accurate geodetic positioning, geographic information systems, and artificial intelligence. The main aim of …
Sugarcane is a of the crop with the greatest potentiality productive in Brazil, cultivate in more difference regions of countries, among the problems that cause fall in productivity, the use of machinal heavy and your intense traffic provides increase of soil compaction, hindering the emergence of culture tillers, which considerably increase the damage due to these failures in the product…
The peanut crop holds a prominent position in Brazilian agriculture, being widely cultivated across various regions of the country. However, agricultural mechanization, while boosting peanut production, is one of the main practices that can lead to environmental impacts, particularly in relation to CO2 storage in the soil and its emission into the atmosphere. To mitigate environmental deg…
Peanut cultivation, essential for many economies worldwide, faces increasing challenges due to climate change, which primarily impacts productivity through variations in temperature and precipitation. This project aims to assess the climate risk for peanut cultivation in Brazil, specifically in the state of São Paulo, under current conditions and future scenarios of greenhouse gas (GHG) m…
Peanuts are an agricultural crop of great relevance in Brazil, both for the economy and for human and animal nutrition. However, the mechanized peanut picking operation often faces challenges related to losses in the field, including visible losses, such as pods lost during harvest and deposited on the ground, and invisible losses, which represent pods that remain under the ground. These …

The soil stores significant amounts of carbon in its structures, therefore it is necessary to understand the factors that can generate losses of this essential element for living beings. Agricultural mechanization is one of the main factors that affect soil carbon emissions, through soil tillage management, which can be: Conventional tillage (PC), Reduced tillage (PR), and Direct planting…
The digital revolution is driving agricultural systems and directly helping in decision-making. However, the unfriendly use and the lack of techonology for tomato crop monitoring dramatically marginalize the farmer. Remote sensing techniques with high-efficiency systems can overcome this challenge. Therefore, here the objective is to develop a open-source framework to monitor tomato cro g…
Estimating saccharine and bioenergy feedstocks in sugarcane allows stakeholders, from research centers to industries, to decide the precise time and place to harvest a product in the field; thus, it can streamline workflow while leveling the cost-effectiveness of full-scale production. On the one hand, Brix and Purity can offer meaningful and reliable indicators of high-quality raw materi…

Current digital and precision agriculture research largely relies on UAV workflows that generate orthomosaics from nadir-view imagery. This approach excludes valuable data from alternative viewing angles and introduces blending steps during image processing. This issue may be particularly critical for specialty crops, such as staking tomatoes, which are highly anisotropic, with vertical c…
