82 Agricultural Remote Sensing: I

Oral Session
ASA Section: Climatology & Modeling
Remote sensing provides information for crop nutrient, irrigation, weed, and pest management at different scales from ground level to regional views. New satellites and unmanned aircraft are providing new capabilities for data collection.  Contributions to this session present the latest research on extracting geospatial information from the data for crop management.

Approved for 2.5 CM CEUs.
