The Role of Remote Sensing in Agriculture and Future Vision

Abstract

The sustainability of agriculture became one of the key priorities for policy frameworks at global and European levels. The global initiative of the United Nations that defined the Sustainable Development Goals and the European Green Deal. Use of remote sensing to achieve sustainable practices in the entire agriculture value chain can significantly contribute to fulfil the set goals by the policy frameworks. This paper analyses the stakeholders involved in agriculture including the agri-food, public, financial and food security sectors, and their needs. In situ and virtual workshops with relevant stakeholders including an online survey served as a primary source of input for the user requirements analysis and as a platform for feedback and discussion. As a result, a set of key documents including a white paper, a policy roadmap and a strategic research agenda were published. Recommendations for future utilisation of remote sensing in agriculture are described in this paper.

Food Technology forecasting: A based bibliometric update in functional chocolates

“…Hassoun et al [ 13 ] conclude that green technologies are revolutionizing agriculture and food production, so more green and digital solutions are expected to be applied shortly to achieve a healthier food system. Hence, for TF-based studies, it is necessary to have a large amount of satellite data in agriculture, which can help farmers make accurate decisions [ 14 ]. Also, it is ideal that the public and private sectors help create database platforms for precision agriculture to improve food quantity and quality.…”
