One of the major applications of remote sensing tools in agriculture pertains to studies on yield forecasting, irrigation requirement, pest management etc. However, research reports on spectral changes in relation to crop management practices and soil related factors are scarce for oilseed crops in general and safflower crop in particular. Safflower (Carthamus tintorius L.) is a major oilseed crop in India with 98 per cent of the total acreage spread in the states of Maharashtra, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh (Anonymous, 1994). It is grown in heavy textured clay soils of Vidarbha region (Maharashtra) primarily due to the characteristics like drought tolerance and ability of the tap root to penetrate into deep soil layers (Weiss, 1983). Objective of this study was to explore potential of using spectral indices in indirect and accurate estimation of physiological traits affecting yield of safflower as a function of soil variability.
