Agriculture is becoming more and more in the hands of a few large producers. Technological advances are taking place in the sense of control and automation of production processes, requiring increasingly detailed and sophisticated knowledge of what happens on farms. As a result, there is a need to improve techniques that are well-established in academic circles but have only recently been applied in the field. This book - Studies in Remote Sensing Applied to Commercial Crops - presents various case studies and examples of the applicability of remote sensing to guide the reader towards the practice of monitoring and inspecting agriculture by satellite. This book is therefore timely for the current stage of development and technological advances in agricultural satellite monitoring. It will undoubtedly stimulate the application of these methodologies in many agricultural ecosystems, and will be useful for undergraduates, postgraduates and professionals in agronomy, agricultural engineering, geography, consultants and decision-makers who need to improve their knowledge and apply it to the management, monitoring and inspection of commercial agricultural areas.
