Using SPOT data and leaf area index for rice yield estimation in Egyptian Nile delta

The objective of the current work is to generate statistical empirical rice yield estimation models under the local conditions of the Egyptian Nile delta. The methodology is based on regressing measured yield with satellite derived spectral information or leaf area index (LAI). LAI field measurement...
