Workshop on digital agriculture and agricultural satellite monitoring - a union contribution between teaching, extension and research

Information from remote sensing (SR), in the form of images or maps, and the reports or processes associated with its interpretation, have a high potential to be an axis and motivation for informed debates about the reality of regional agricultural production. This process is bidirectional, because the accurate interpretation of the information recorded by the sensors also depends on a deep knowledge of the process and reality of the field, which is recorded by the producer and his team over the years. In this scenario, the Agricultural Satellite Monitoring Workshop was organized, consisting of a motivational presentation, technical visit and video-reports on the monitoring of commercial crops by SR in the 2017/2018 harvest. The importance of this work lies in the identification of methodologies that will stimulate professionals, academics and the general public to participate in processes of sharingf experiences and creation of knowledge in the interface between university teaching, research and extension. The results indicate that SR monitoring of commercial rice and soybean crops, and the presentation of results in the form of a workshop on the property, is a favorable configuration for extension, research and teaching activities between university and company, and motivating covenants between them.
