Abstract

A method performed by a plant handling arrangement for handling one or more plants of a set of plants is provided. The method comprises obtaining (201) image data indicative of the set of plants. The method further comprises, based on the obtained image data, identifying (203) a candidate plant out of the set of plants. The method further comprises, based on the obtained image data, determining (204) a position of the identified candidate plant. The method further comprises handling (205) the identified candidate plant based on the determined position.
