| Abstract: |
Our (MARS STAT group) mission is to provide independent, homogenous, quantitative crop statistics at EU and National levels, in near real time and within an operational system.
To reach the objective, MARS STAT has developed methodologies for early crop yield and area estimates, such as the MARS Crop Yield Forecasting System, based on satellite information, agro-meteorological modelling and statistical analyses.
We are also partner in the ENSEMBLES European project (http://www.ensembles-eu.org/) and in this framework we have the duty to assess the possible impacts of global warming on the European Agriculture. |
