Remote Sensing
We use a range of satellite and Earth-bound remote sensing platforms to investigate cover crop adoption and performance and to inform our decision support tools. On a broader scale, our analyses can reveal the impacts of federal and state cost-share programs that incentivize sustainable agriculture.
With our satellite remote sensing of conservation agriculture, we link field measurements with satellite imagery to understand how cover cropping practices perform and how incentive programs can impact environmental health.
We link satellite and proximal sensing data to our decision support tools to aid farmers with near-real-time management decisions.
Our proximal remote sensing with Forage Sensor Box maps cover crop growth within fields and guides precision nutrient management.
