This webinar discusses how remote sensing and visual near-infrared spectroscopy is used to create a process of analysis that optimises agriculture on grasslands.

Taking place on 20 February from 16:00 to 17:00, this webinar focuses on the Malvern Panalytical ASD FieldSpec® spectroradiometer instrument. It is presented by its guest from Massey University of New Zealand School of Agriculture and Environment, Dr Pullanagari Reddy.

Dr Pullanagari Reddy was born and raised in an agricultural family in Mahabubnagar district located in the state of Telangana, India. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Agriculture from Acharya NG Ranga Agriculture University (ANGRAU), Telangana, India, and a Master’s degree in Agronomy from University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS), GKVK, Bangalore, Karnataka, India. He earned a PhD degree in an area of remote sensing from the School of Agriculture and Environment, Massey University, and has been working as a senior research officer in this same group since the completion of his PhD.

Dr Reddy’s main area of interest is precision agriculture studies where he works on hyperspectral sensing and imaging combined with advanced analytics such as machine learning and statistical learning techniques to create useful and robust information from the remotely sensed data.
