Summary of the Programme
CHAMAN (Coordinated on Horticulture Assessment and MAnagement
using geoiNfromatics)
Launched by DAC in September, 2014
• Area assessment and production forecasting of major horticultural crops in selected districts of major states.
• Geospatial Applications for Horticultural Development and Management Planning
• Detailed scientific field level studies for developing technology for crop identification, yield modeling and disease assessment.
