USE OF SATELLITE IMAGES OF FIELD VEGETATION FOR MONITORING OF CROP AND PHYTOSANITARY CONDITION OF WINTER WHEAT

The use of satellite imagery of field vegetation is becoming an increasingly important tool for effective monitoring of winter wheat crops. Thanks to remote sensing, it is possible to quickly assess the state of vegetation, identify areas with different levels of development and detect potential problems such as uneven growth, nutrient deficiencies or signs of disease or pest damage. Analysis of vegetation indices obtained from satellite data allows for an objective assessment of the phytosanitary condition of crops, which contributes to timely response and taking necessary measures to ensure high yields.
