Question

How does the learning of remote sensing technology can help a person with M.Sc(Agriculture) in his career?

Answer 1

One of the most important application of remote sensing technology is in improving the crops production. This can be done by analyzing the resources such as underground water, minerals, etc.

the satellites which monitors the earth's climate (used by meteorologists for prediction of cyclone and rainfall) can be used to forecast rain which will help farmers to cultivate land at appropriate time thereby making use of rain water to maximum.

Answer 2

Ask Indian Institute of Remote Sensing (NRSA), at Dehradun, India., the famous...............

Answer 3

Remote sensing technologies are now being widely used in agriculture. Agriculture is a broad field with so many departments like agronomy, soil science, irrigation water mangement and so on. Remote sensing has specified appilcations in agriculture for getting an idea about the moisture status in soil. It can also determine the forest cover over an area. It is also used for estimating the Crop Area Index.

It is an emerging field. Agriculture Master Degree holders having theoretical background of remote sensing can apply for Scientist posts publihed from NRSA, Hyderabad. There thay are supposed to work mainly in the field of flood or drought management or crop yield related affairs. I being an agriculture master degree holder, wish to opt for it. It is a good career option.
