Warmer and Drier Than Normal Conditions Expected in December

By Pam Knox
 
The latest monthly outlook for December 2020 is now out from NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center. It shows that all of the Southeast is expected to be warmer than normal and that most of the region is also likely to be drier than normal. This is consistent with our expectation of the continuing strong La Nina which is now affecting us. This general climate pattern is likely to persist over the winter, although there will be colder outbreaks from time to time, since after all, it will be winter.

Video: What Is Remote Sensing In Precision Agriculture? - The World of Agriculture

What Is Remote Sensing In Precision Agriculture? In this informative video, we will dive into the fascinating world of remote sensing and its role in precision agriculture. Remote sensing technology allows farmers to gather critical information about their fields without the need for physical presence. By utilizing satellites, drones, and aircraft equipped with advanced sensors, farmers can monitor various aspects of their crops, from temperature and moisture levels to overall plant health.

We will explore how the data collected through remote sensing can empower farmers to make strategic decisions for their crops. With the ability to identify specific areas that require more water or nutrients, farmers can optimize resource usage, leading to healthier plants and improved yields.

Moreover, remote sensing plays a vital role in tracking crop growth over time. By comparing images taken at different growth stages, farmers can evaluate their crops’ development and adjust their management practices accordingly.
