Researchers have developed a method for early sugar beet yield prediction using satellite imagery and specialized Vision Transformers. By integrating domain knowledge with machine learning, the study found that using small patch sizes and all available Sentinel-2 spectral bands improved model performance. This approach successfully identified a significant portion of low-yield fields early in the growth cycle through a modified training setup and a ranking-based detection system. AI
