Use of high to very high resolution multispectral, hyperspectral EO= data has proven helpful in identifying a set of indicators characteri= sing organic versus traditional crops: nitrogen content, yield, spatia= l heterogeneity, early ripening, presence of catch crops, crop rotatio= n and detection and characterization of tractor traces in fields.=
Monitoring organic crops along their development stages might be pa= rticularly relevant for certification purposes in countries where cert= ain amounts of yield are certified for export before harvest and = organic farmers might be tempted to =E2=80=98fill up=E2=80=99 any gaps= in their own production due, for instance, to hail damage, with conve= ntional crops.
Real-time yield estimation via EO can serve as a flag for these yie= ld-influencing events by calculating a range for the possible yield, t= hus raising awareness to areas, where estimated and previously ce= rtified yield do not match the actual output.
