| dc.description | Estimates and forecasts of crop area and yield are of critical importance to policy-makers in planning agricultural production and in monitoring the food supply. Inaccurate estimations can lead to inappropriate policies and unfavorable outcomes, possibly worsening food security. In partnership with the Asian Development Bank (ADB), FAO convened an expert meeting on crop monitoring for improved crop security in Vientiane, Lao People’s Democratic Republic on 17 February 2014 attended by over 40 ex perts from countries in Asia and the Pacific and from research institutions and international organizations. The objective of the meeting was to share best practices and experiences in the use of remote sensing technology and other similar tools for crop monitoring, area estimation and yield forecasting. Outcomes of the deliberations as well as technical and research papers are included in the report. | |
