Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Soil health is a critical component of sustainable agricultural practices, as it directly impacts crop productivity and environmental sustainability. The use of remote sensing techniques for assessing soil health has gained significant attention in recent years due to its non-invasive and cost-effective nature. This thesis aims to explore the potential of remote sensing technologies in evaluating soil health parameters and their correlation with crop productivity. The study begins with a comprehensive review of existing literature on soil health assessment methods and remote sensing applications in agriculture. This literature review highlights the limitations of traditional soil sampling methods and the advantages of remote sensing technologies in providing spatial and temporal information on soil properties. In the methodology section, the research design and data collection techniques are outlined. The study utilizes satellite imagery, aerial photography, and ground-based sensors to collect data on soil moisture, nutrient levels, and other key soil health indicators. Statistical analyses are employed to establish relationships between remote sensing data and soil health parameters. The findings section presents the results of the study, including the correlation between remote sensing data and soil health indicators. The analysis reveals the potential of remote sensing techniques in accurately predicting soil properties and identifying areas of soil degradation or nutrient deficiency. The discussion section interprets the findings in the context of existing literature and discusses the implications for agricultural practices. The study emphasizes the importance of integrating remote sensing technologies into soil health monitoring programs to improve decision-making in agriculture and enhance sustainability. In conclusion, this thesis highlights the significance of using remote sensing techniques for assessing soil health and provides valuable insights into the potential applications of these technologies in agriculture. The findings contribute to the growing body of knowledge on soil health assessment methods and offer practical recommendations for future research and implementation in the field.
