| CONTRACT FARM ADVISOR |
| |
| Do you want to optimize crop production
in the contract farmed area, and sustain productivity
and revenue ? |
We will analyse satellite data in the current crop season
and provide timely information for targeted management
action. |
|
We will map area under the crop - through the crop season
|
|
We will map, and analyse spatial variability in crop area
and vigour |
|
We will map soil problems such as salinity, alkalinity
and waterlogging |
| You will see variations in the crop that are not visible
to the human eye, to identify and respond quickly to problems
caused by insects, weather or nutrient deficiencies.
You can then
- Apply location specific inputs, reducing
overall cost of inputs
- Undertake land and soil reclamation, and
enhance productivity
- Monitor yield for location specific analysis
|
|
We will also advice on harvest scheduling by indicating
where the crop growth is ahead of other areas |
|
We will also develop crop productivity models
correlating satellite data (and other relevant data) with
ground-measured yields, to provide advance estimates of
production for market action, and to identify low productivity
areas for corrective action. |
