25 Soil Moisture & Drought Monitoring

26 Soil Moisture Monitoring Distribution of Soil Relative Moisture is based on the Data Observed on ground every five days

27 Agricultural drought monitoring & Forecasting Agricultural Drought Monitoring is integrated from Soil Moisture Crop Water Deficit Model Remote Sensing Model. Agricultural drought forecasting is based on the Numerical Weather Prediction and Crop Water Deficit Model

28 Integrated Model Soil Moisture Remote Sensing Model Crop Water Deficit Model

29 Agro-meteorological disaster monitoring and warning Based on the disaster meteorological indicators, according to the crop growth stage and the weather forecasting to provide the Agrometeorological disaster monitoring and warning information on heat wave, chilling/frozen injury, snow disaster.

31 Agro-meteorology Forecasting Crop Yield Forecasting Weather condition forecasting for Pests and diseases

32 The weather-yield simulation forecasting and models are developed and used in our country in resent years. Main methods: Statistical Crop Yield Forecasting Techniques Decomposing-synthesizing, Structure-factorial, Regression Remote sensing yield estimating Area estimating, greenness Index-yield, Remote sensing integration Dynamic Crop Growth Model Basic process, Assimilate distributing and accumulating, yield formation

33 The Decomposing-synthesizing Statistical Model The general form of the model is given as Y = Yw + Yt + Y Where Y is the yield, Yw the component of meteorological effects on the yield, or meteorological yield, Yt as a component denoting the temporal technique tendency yield, and ΔY the stochastic error, often negligible in prediction.

34 Tendency Yield simulation predicting Methods The usual techniques of tendency yield simulation include linear, quasi-linear, nonlinear, piecewise, linear running averaging, harmonic weighing and exponential smoothing methods. the quasi-linear model include the function as Conic, Power, Index, Logarithm, Hyperbola and Growth.

35 Meteorological Yield simulation predicting Methods The meteorological yield simulation in common use statistical regression model, as Multivariate Regression Stepwise Regression Gradual Regression Integral Regression Multiple Discriminant Analysis

36 Procedures for Crop Dynamic yield forecasting Yield statistics, crop calendar, agro-meteorological indicators and daily weather information Comprehensive diagnostic indicators historical weather impact index on crop yield Main crop s dynamic yields forecasting model

37 weather condition forecasting for Pests and diseases developing

38 According to the environment weather conditions to make the risk forecasting for the wheat scab, rice blast, rice plant-hopper, grassland locusts and other pests and diseases occurring and evolvement

39 Procedures for making products of meteorological risk forecasting for Pests and diseases developing Ground obs.
