Nevena Stevanović

Position:Associate researcher
Academic Rank: Research Associate
Nevena Stevanović is a Research Assistant at the Center for biosystems, BioSense Institute, and a PhD candidate at the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Belgrade, in the study program Soil and Water Management. Her research is focused on optimizing irrigation system management, with a particular emphasis on assessing the uniformity of water distribution in linear, large-span irrigation systems. She also investigates plant–water relationships and plant sensitivity to water stress, with a focus on vegetable crops. In her work, she examines the physiological and phenotypic responses of plants to different environmental conditions, both under field and controlled environments, using precision agriculture techniques and advanced sensor technologies, including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), hyperspectral, fluorescent, thermal, and 3D cameras. She is dedicated to improving agricultural production through the integration of scientific knowledge, digitalization, and the application of innovative methods in practice, with the aim of increasing productivity and ensuring the sustainability of agriculture.
