November 2020 Outlook Shows Warmer and Drier Conditions Likely to Continue

By Pam Knox

NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center released their final outlook for November yesterday. It shows that for the Southeast, warmer and drier conditions than normal are expected through the month, although there will be some cold periods, including tomorrow morning, which see frost in northern and more elevated parts of the region. This is expected due to the current La Nina we are in now. The CPC also predicted the onset of drought in southeastern Georgia extending over the border into South Carolina. This area was largely missed by the recent tropical rains and has been quite dry.

What Is Remote Sensing In Precision Agriculture? In this informative video, we will dive into the fascinating world of remote sensing and its role in precision agriculture. Remote sensing technology allows farmers to gather critical information about their fields without the need for physical presence. By utilizing satellites, drones, and aircraft equipped with advanced sensors, farmers can monitor various aspects of their crops, from temperature and moisture levels to overall plant health.

We will explore how the data collected through remote sensing can empower farmers to make strategic decisions for their crops. With the ability to identify specific areas that require more water or nutrients, farmers can optimize resource usage, leading to healthier plants and improved yields.

Moreover, remote sensing plays a vital role in tracking crop growth over time. By comparing images taken at different growth stages, farmers can evaluate their crops’ development and adjust their management practices accordingly.
