Agriculture
Every day, farmers and other agricultural producers rely on timely, trusted information to manage their crops, land, and livestock. NASA develops technology and missions to observe agricultural landscapes from space, the air, and the ground — information that the U.S. and international partners use to enhance food security, stabilize markets, and support productive farming.
Where Does NASA Fit?
From space, NASA tracks soil moisture, groundwater levels, crop type, and agricultural production, while also supporting precision farming with GPS-based field mapping. On the ground, NASA collaborates with local producers to develop and refine solutions that meet their local needs. By transforming satellite data into practical tools and maps, NASA helps producers at home and around the world anticipate challenges, improve productivity, and safeguard food resources.

How NASA Helps U.S. Agriculture
The farmers responsible for the food that reaches your plate need a lot of a very precious and limited resource, water. NASA works with farmers like Dwane Roth of Kansas to help them track their water use.
