Use of Multispectral Airborne Images to Improve In-Season Nitrogen Management, Predict Grain Yield and Estimate Economic Return of Maize in Irrigated High Yielding Environments

Vegetation indices (VIs) derived from active or passive sensors have been used for maize growth monitoring and real-time nitrogen (N) management at field scale. In the present multilocation two-year study, multispectral VIs (green- and red-based), chlorophyll meter (SPAD) and plant height (PltH) mea...
