Deep Dive into Crop Monitoring, Area & Yield Estimation with Farmonaut’s Partner Mr.Dipankar Gyan

Blogs, Interview / By

Hi Dipankar ji! Can you throw some light on fundamental principles of crop monitoring and yield prediction that lay the foundation for effective agricultural decision-making? Sure. Crop monitoring and yield prediction can be very important for decision making at every stage of a crop. The goal is effective decision making that will help reduce inputs and loss and enhance yields. Crop monitoring can be done through naked eyes by field scouting, digital images, IoT devices and remote sensing. Farmers through experience can use naked eye for decision making but this process has a lot of limitations. Through digital images, it can be shared with experts for decision making but it also lacks the details and cannot be done at a scale. Through sensors we can only manage to a very small area and the it is very costly. Remote sensing and precision farming is the only methodology through which crop monitoring can be done at a scale i.e from farm level to country level. Also, it is more scientific and it covers large range of problems. It addresses the intervention required and helps in saving costs. Also, yield prediction is the most important parameter in crop monitoring by remote sensing. By this methodology we can calculate yield on different types of crops in different climatic conditions, different soil types and other phenological properties. So, for effective decision-making remote sensing is the most reliable, scientific, scalable and cheap method of crop monitoring and yield prediction. Also, How crucial is accurate data collection and analysis in crop monitoring and yield prediction, and what are the primary factors influencing the accuracy of these predictions? In the emerging world of data, Accurate data collection is the base of any type of crop monitoring and yield predictions. If the data goes wrong the diagnosis of the problem will be incorrect. Any wrong information will directly or indirectly impact the decision and will lead to wrong conclusion and wrong prescriptions which will indirectly impact yields. Also, any incorrect data analysis despite correct input data could be bad for crop monitoring and yield prediction. Yield of crops are the functions of timely action throughout the crop cycle from field preparation to harvest of crop. So, if any intervention due to wrong data collection or wrong analysis could lead to yield loss. Primary factors impacting the accuracy of prediction is the correct collection of field data, crop type, soil types, climatic zones, weather factors, farming practices and other phenological properties. If the data provided are correct then the accuracy will improve and lead to better yields. So, to help any predictions to succeed the input data and analysis has to be correct. Well relating to that Can you elaborate on the key technological approaches Farmonaut employs for accurate crop monitoring and yield prediction, ensuring data precision and reliability? Certainly, Farmonaut uses remote sensing data from various satellites constellations, ground data, complex algorithms, Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning models, Deep learning models, Statistical models, Agriculture experts, Weather forecats for accurate crop monitoring and yield prediction.

Satellite imagery can be used to create maps of crop health and yield potential, which can help farmers make better decisions about how to manage their crops. Farmonaut with the aim of promoting precision agriculture uses satellite imagery to create two types of maps the Vegetative Map and the Productive Map. The Vegetative Map shows the health and growth of the crop, based on the NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) value of each pixel in the image. The NDVI value is a measure of how much green vegetation is present in a pixel. A higher NDVI value indicates healthier and more vigorous vegetation. The Productive Map shows the potential yield of the crop, based on the NDVI value, the soil type, and the weather conditions. The Productive Map can be used to identify areas of the field that are underperforming, so that farmers can take corrective action. Normalized Difference Vegetation Index – NDVI NDVI assesses the condition of plant health by analyzing how plants reflect light at specific wavelengths. While these light wavelengths are not directly visible to us, everything in our environment, including plants, reflects light across both visible and non-visible spectrums. By quantifying the extent to which particular wavelengths are reflected, we gain insights into the present state of the plants. This technique allows us to indirectly gauge the health of plants based on their light reflection patterns. The NDVI image differs in the Productive and Vegetative Map of Farmonaut in the following ways:   The Productive Map uses the NDVI value, the soil type, and the weather conditions to estimate the yield potential of the crop.   The Vegetative Map only uses the NDVI value to measure the health and growth of the crop. The NDVI image differs in the Productive and Vegetative Map of Farmonaut in the following ways: The Productive Map uses the NDVI value, the soil type, and the weather conditions to estimate the yield potential of the crop. The Vegetative Map only uses the NDVI value to measure the health and growth of the crop. In general, the Vegetative Map is more useful for short-term decision-making, such as identifying areas of the field that need to be irrigated or fertilized. The Productive Map is more useful for long-term planning, such as planning crop planting and harvesting. Here are some examples of how the Vegetative Map and Productive Map can be used by farmers: Identifying areas of stress or poor health. The Vegetative Map can be used to identify areas of the field that are stressed or unhealthy. This information can be used to irrigate or fertilize those areas to improve crop health.  Planning crop planting and harvesting. The Productive Map can be used to plan crop planting and harvesting. For example, if an area of the field has a high NDVI value, it may be a good place to plant a high-yield crop. The farmer can also use the Productive Map to plan the timing of harvesting, so that the crop is harvested at its peak yield.  Monitoring crop progress over time. The Vegetative Map and Productive Map can be used to monitor the progress of a crop over time. This can be helpful for identifying areas of the field that are not performing as expected, so that corrective action can be taken early.  Identifying and addressing problems early on. The Vegetative Map and Productive Map can be used to identify and address problems early on. For example, if a crop is not growing as quickly as expected, the farmer can use the Vegetative Map to see if there is a problem with the soil quality or water availability.

By analyzing the reflectance of near-infrared and red-edge wavelengths, NDRE images provide valuable insights into the crop’s health and stress levels. The red color on the images indicates areas of concern, highlighting potential issues that demand immediate attention to prevent further damage. On the other hand, the green color signifies healthy crop areas, giving farmers confidence in the successful development of their crops. Additionally, the combination of NDVI and LIDAR sensors enhances the monitoring process, allowing for more accurate assessments of crop density, canopy structure, and overall health. By utilizing these advanced tools during the later growth stage, farmers can make data-driven decisions, optimize resource allocation, and ensure a bountiful and successful harvest.
