How can satellite imagery help farmers?
Some satellites provide useful information for farmers which helps them make decisions to improve efficiency. Farmers can decide what action to take also where in the field to do it rather than just doing the whole field. This is called precision agriculture and can help farmers by using less resources, time, and money to grow their crops. It also helps farmers to farm with nature, taking unproductive land out of food production to create new habitats as well as monitoring existing habitats.
