Crop management is the set of agricultural practices performed to improve the growth, development, and yield of crops. It begins with a seedbed preparation, sowing of seeds and crop maintenance; and ends with crop harvest, storage, and marketing. There are many aspects of crop management from production techniques to understanding the boundary conditions of farms and the impact of harvesting on future crops. Monitoring a farm, whether at the field level or the overall farm requires the use of satellites and drones to understand and monitor growing conditions, plant health, and threats to plant health. Monitoring crops also allows us to enhance our understanding of food availability. Much of work done in crop monitoring focuses on ensuring a healthy and large production yield, as well as early warning signs of disease and shortfalls in crop production.
