Which technology uses satellite data for crop yield estimation and insurance assessment?
- Remote Sensing
- IoT Sensors
- Blockchain
- AI Chatbots
Answer: Remote Sensing
Remote sensing via satellites (like Resourcesat, Sentinel) provides multispectral imagery for crop health monitoring, acreage estimation, and yield prediction. Used in PMFBY (crop insurance) for objective loss assessment. Critical for technology-enabled agricultural policy and risk management questions.
