Remote sensing to observe agricultural crops and land cover is a widely accepted tool. The new generation of very high resolution (VHR) satellites like QuickBird which provides optical sensors with improved repetition rates and spatial resolution, may have potential in precision farming. Analysis of the multispectral VHR QuickBird images show that it is possible to distinguish between the different types of stress as established in field plots. Daily availability of VHR satellite images will be required to make remote sensing with optical sensors relatively weather independent and to monitor the dynamic process of spatial expansion and temporal spread of stress symptoms within fields. In addition, to make satellite remote sensing operational and reliable within the EU, full coverage will be required.
