Purdue Agronomy Farm Other Crops (791809)
The purpose of this experiment was to obtain data for crops other
than corn, soybeans, and winter wheat which may have similar
spectral characteristics. The other crops plots were those used by
other researchers at the Agronomy Farm which were near the corn
and soybean cultural practices plots and winter wheat plots. There
was not much data collected for this experiment since its priority
was lower than that for the other 1979 Agronomy Farm experiments.
The other crops included alfalfa and sunflowers.
The spectral measurements were made with a Landsat band
radiometer (Exotech Model 100) and the Exotech 20C field
spectroradiometer field system. Minimal agronomic data were
collected on the plots.
