Abstract
Accurate identification and mapping of isabgol fields help in macro-level planning in the arid and semi-arid regions, where variability is very high due to erratic weather conditions, besides providing the production estimates of the crop. Isabgol is an important medicinal crop cultivated in western India. This study aims to accurately identify isabgol growing area at field level with help of progressive remotely sensed satellite data. Sentinel-2 data was used for the first crop season (2020) and the second crop season (2021) for the isabgol crop classification. Cluster to cluster comparison between satellite driven data and ground control point has been done for accuracy assessment. The producer accuracy ranged from 63.80 to 88.00% for the first crop (2020) and 70.84 to 88.89% for the second crop (2021). Our results were in sync with revenue records data (0.95 and 0.99 correlation for the first and second crop seasons, respectively). We found improved producer accuracy for the first crop over the second crop. The results shown that the time series Sentinel-2 data could be used for isabgol identification in various regions of India. The remote sensing-based methods could be used for precise estimation of isabgol crop acreage will help predict demand and supply. This information is valuable to the researchers, policy makers, pharmaceutical industries, and agronomists to accurately address issues related to import/export of isabgol and price fixation.
期刊介绍:
The COSPAR publication Advances in Space Research (ASR) is an open journal covering all areas of space research including: space studies of the Earth''s surface, meteorology, climate, the Earth-Moon system, planets and small bodies of the solar system, upper atmospheres, ionospheres and magnetospheres of the Earth and planets including reference atmospheres, space plasmas in the solar system, astrophysics from space, materials sciences in space, fundamental physics in space, space debris, space weather, Earth observations of space phenomena, etc.
NB: Please note that manuscripts related to life sciences as related to space are no more accepted for submission to Advances in Space Research. Such manuscripts should now be submitted to the new COSPAR Journal Life Sciences in Space Research (LSSR).
All submissions are reviewed by two scientists in the field. COSPAR is an interdisciplinary scientific organization concerned with the progress of space research on an international scale. Operating under the rules of ICSU, COSPAR ignores political considerations and considers all questions solely from the scientific viewpoint.
