Use of remote sensing to determine the relationship of early vigour to grain yield in canola (Brassica napus L.) germplasm

Early crop vigour in canola, as in other crops, is likely to result in greater competition with weeds, more rapid canopy closure, improved nutrient acquisition, improved water-use efficiency, and, potentially, greater final grain yield. Laborious measurements of crop biomass over time can be replace...
