Yield Estimation: Concept, Methods and Need

Abstract


Increasing yield. This can be achieved in two ways first by increasing the yield and the other by preventing the losses due to biotic and abiotic agents. In recent times we're veritably much near to precluding the losses due to biotic agents which includes colorful conditions and nonentity- pest through IDM and molecular ways. When it comes to losses due to abiotic agents which mainly includes losses due to inappropriate weather and physiological disorders we are still lacking behind as these are still difficult to forecast the losses going to occur due to abiotic factors. But as the forecasting efficiencies of India Meteorological Department has been continuously increasing, we are also able to minimize the losses due to abiotic stresses by timely making aware the farmers about the upcoming constraints
