Abstract
Leaf area measurements in the field are very difficult to determine the yield. Use of the mobile application has come to the fore due to its practical use and ease of transportation. Therefore, in this study, the ease of use and accuracy were tested by determining area of leaf with an automatic leaf area meter and a mobile application called 'PETIOLE'. The leaf area of alfalfa plants (Medicago sativa L. cv Nimet) grown in the field, and measured in the field with the 'PETIOLE' mobile application and in laboratory conditions with automatically leaf area measurement device was measured. The automated leaf area meter mean for total leaf area was 61.65 ± 3.50, meanwhile the mean for the PETIOLE App assessment was 61.56 ± 3.15. As a result, the PETIOLE app measures the area of each leaf separately, more quickly and efficiently than before, particularly in the field.
