Thus pre-harvest forecasting of production is required when crop is still standing in the field. An efficient forecasting is thus a pre-requisite for food supply information system at district and state level. The final crop production estimates, though based on objective crop-cutting experiments, are of limited utility as these become available much later after the crop harvest. In view of this, there is a need for developing an objective methodology for pre-harvest forecasting of crop yield... publisher: ICAR date: 2017-05 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://oar.icrisat.org/10045/1/70210-176490-1-SM.pdf identifier: Panwar, S and Singh, K N and Kumar, A and Gurung, B and Sarkar, S K and Sivaramane, N and Rathore, A (2017) Pre harvest forecasting of crop yield using non-linear regression modelling: A concept.
