Smart analysis of agricultural land use with NDVI at Kuraginskoye agricultural experimental production facility

Variability of Ndvi Agricultural Used Areas

One of the possibilities offered to us by the remote sensing, is to monitor all the vegetation. Therefore agricultural plants can be monitor as well. From the spectral point of view, the presence of vegetation induces a significant increase of reflectance in IR part of the spectra. The main topic of this research project was to evaluate the changes in reflectance in chosen agriculturally used l...

Monitoring Agricultural Biomass Using NDVI Time Series

Speculation in Agricultural Land

Agricultural land prices in many developed countries rose and then fell dramatically over a relatively short period of time in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Most of the models in the literature that describe the dynamic behaviour of agricultural land prices suggest that these sharp price movements were not completely due to market fundamentals. Many attribute part of this price volatility to ...

Agricultural Production

Agricultural production is not keeping up with the world demand for food because the human population is increasing faster than agriculture’s food production capability (Pimentel et al., 1999). Uneven distribution of food, the inability of the poor to purchase food, and political unrest also threaten world food security for human society. Currently, more than 3 billion humans worldwide are maln...

A Remote Sensing Approach for Regional-Scale Mapping of Agricultural Land-Use Systems Based on NDVI Time Series

In response to the need for generic remote sensing tools to support large-scale agricultural monitoring, we present a new approach for regional-scale mapping of agricultural land-use systems (ALUS) based on object-based Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) time series analysis. The approach consists of two main steps. First, to obtain relatively homogeneous land units in terms of pheno...
