Title
Nasa Harvest(Ing) Earth Observations For Informed Agricultural Decisions
Abstract
Agriculture, while critically important to humanity in terms of jobs and sustenance, is also one of the largest contributors to climate change, the largest user of freshwater, and one of the primary drivers of land cover and land use change. Accordingly, the need for timely, accurate, and actionable information to understand these impacts and dynamics is growing. NASA Harvest - NASA 's multisectoral food security and agriculture program - contends that Earth observations play a critical role in both the attainment of and the monitoring of progress toward the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. In order to really deliver on what will be in 2030 six decades of investment in Earth observations with respect to agricultural productivity, sustainability, and land use, we posit herein several critical areas of necessary investigation, collaboration, partnership, and action for 2020-2030 and beyond.
