NASA satellite remote sensing data provide the world with essential information that enables government organizations to feed the hungry, policymakers to make informed decisions, and aid organizations to provide relief. This series of videos illustrate the value of the unique perspective gained from space and enforces the need for global agricultural monitoring and accurate forecasting. The six episodes define the global food system, look at NASAs role in providing an uninterrupted supply of satellite remote sensing data for agricultural production monitoring, explore the successful partnerships and monitoring tools used to provide an understanding of the global perspective on agriculture, and examine the concepts of land cover and land use change, food security, the availability of water resources, and global agricultural production in a changing climate. less
