The Mahalanobis National Crop Forecast Centre (MNCFC) has evolved significantly since its inception. Initially, it focused on providing timely crop forecasts and drought assessments using cutting-edge techniques developed by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). Over the past decade, MNCFC's role has expanded considerably. It now serves as a key technical advisor to the Ministry, promoting the use of satellite remote sensing and GIS technologies to improve crop estimation. Essentially, MNCFC has transitioned from a specialized agricultural forecasting unit to a broader government resource for leveraging space-based technologies in agriculture.
