Abstract:
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology is rapidly
evolving. In agriculture, its use can prove to bring tremendous
productivity in terms of economy and efficiency, especially GIS crop
yield prediction and monitoring. With the integration of several
sources of data such as satellites and wether, and soil information,
GIS also provides maps for agricultural purposes. These maps
enhance crop monitoring, so that there is detection of reasons for
vegetation stress, including health problems and water deficiency,
using remote view imagery technology.

In a further point of view, GIS technology eases the burden of risk


assessment and remediation by containing the various risks
involved in agriculture l, including pests, droughts and floods using
real time data and forecast analyses. After harvest, GIS assist in
forecasting replanning of the crop cycles and also evaluating the
yield data.

Precision farming in maharashtra Farmers in Maharashtra have been


using GIS technology to increase their crop yields, and make more
efficient use of resources. They produce detailed maps by combining
data obtained from satellite photographs, drones and sensors on the
ground which show differences within fields.in soil moisture, nutrient
content and the health of crops.

With this information, farmers can apply fertilizers, water, and


pesticides more precisely, targeting only the areas that need it. This
not only improves crop yields but also reduces waste and
environmental impact.

A study was conducted with a broad objective of developing and


demonstrating a methodology for crop growth monitoring and yield
forecasting which can provide periodical crop growth assessment
with spatial information. The procedure was developed to generate
grid-weather, link the point based simulation model WOFOST (World
Food Studies) to spatial inputs like crop, soil and weather and
predict wheat yield at grid and administrative scale. Two approaches
were adopted to predict wheat yield; a) the regression approach, in
which simulated potential yields were regressed with final estimated
yields by Directorate of Economics and Statistics (DES) for each of
the six major wheat growing states and b) forcing approach in which
LAI for each grid (25km x 25km) derived from remote sensing was
forced into the simulation model to divert the simulation output and
final grain yield into right direction. The deviations between the
estimated state yield and reported yield were more in case of the
forcing (0.7 – 25.4 %) as compared to regression approach (0.5 – 9.2
%). Results indicated that regression approach is suitable for in
season yield forecasting at state level and forcing approach is better
for spatial crop condition assessment and crop growth monitoring.
