Abstract
An investigation was carried in the erstwhile Mahabubnagar district of Telangana during rabi 2019-20 aiming the estimation of groundnut crop acreage and yield. The crop area was estimated using the satellite images of Landsat-8-OLI sensor from September to February covering the entire crop growth period by performing an unsupervised image classification technique with 300 classes, 300 iterations and a convergence threshold of 0.99. The groundnut yield was estimated by developing the regression equation using crop-cut yield data and NDVI values of the corresponding GPS locations. The crop area was estimated to be 57,865 ha with producer’s and user’s accuracy of 100 and 90% respectively, and a relative deviation of 28.6% when compared with actual ground estimates of the Department of agriculture. The crop yields were estimated with an R2 value of 0.71 and a correlation coefficient of 0.87
