Results and Disscussions
1.2. Yield Estimation
For the yield estimation the MODIS LAI image for August and MODIS NDVI image for April, June and August from 2000 – 2004 were used. 1 x 1 and 3 x 3 kernel pixel extraction method was used to extract the NDVI and LAI values from the NDVI and LAI images. Finally the mean NDVI for all the MODIS images were extracted using the area weighted average or zonal attribute.
