"Healthy, sustainable, and inclusive food systems are critical to achieving the world’s development goals. Agricultural development is one of the most powerful tools to end extreme poverty, boost shared prosperity, and feed a projected 9.7 billion people by 2050. Growth in the agriculture sector is two to four times more effective in raising incomes among the poorest compared to other sectors "(World Bank, 2022).
Earth Observation technologies have enabled precision agriculture and even much more, through the development of yield estimation methods, land agricultural potential, and models that promote efficient planning, monitoring of land productivity, and efficiency all along the agricultural value chain. Simple but pertinent decisions have to be made on planting (decisions on crop type and coverage), growing (tracking plant growth), and harvesting (yield predictions).
