NASA is collaborating with farmers to integrate satellite imagery and precision ag data to help support crop management decisions.
At a stop on a Southeast Nebraska farm Monday, NASA Director of Earth Science Karen St. Germain said the agency is collecting and consolidating soil moisture, weather and biomass data for producers. “They know what to do if they have good, actional information. It’s about getting them the information they need in a format that they can make it ready-use to inform their decisions and not tell them what to do.”
She says she hopes the data can help make farmers more efficient and increase crop production.
