AbstractComputer based image analysis has led to a widespread use of satellite images and aerial photographs in agriculture. However, the application of remote sensing techniques for non-destructive determinations of plant dry matter and nutrient status in field trials has been limited due to the low resolution of satellite images and the high cost of aerial photographs. A simple method based on 24 × 36 mm low-altitude (50 to 500 m) true colour and infra-red aerial photographs taken from a balloon (low-wind conditions) or a kite (high-wind conditions) was used to determine the total dry matter of coppices of the shrub Guiera senegalensis J. F. Gmel. and widely-spaced pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) planting hills. Results from field trials showed a close relationship (r2 = 0.84 for G. senegalensis and r2 = 0.74 for millet) between the harvested total dry matter of single plants and the plant canopy area determined from the digital analysis of aerial photographs.For pearl millet, differences in the di...
