This handbook explains how to use remote sensing technology to
estimate rice crop area and production to support food security
policymaking in Asia and the Pacific. A substantial portion of the
world's rice is produced and consumed in Asia and the Pacific. As
much of the region's population depends on rice farming, timely and
good quality agricultural estimates and forecasts are essential for
effective policy formulation. Recent advances in remote sensing
offer a viable alternative to traditional methods of compiling
agricultural statistics. This publication outlines methods and
tools developed for generating statistics on paddy area and
production using remote sensing and GIS techniques. It aims to help
national statistical agencies pilot and adopt satellite-based
techniques. The handbook complements a massive open online course
on crop area estimation developed by ADB.
