System of using QuickBird to analyze the taste of rice and wheat It will be available to calculate the contained amount of protein of rice using QuickBird. Also it will be available to provide you the managerial system of rice overlaying both QuickBird and agricultural field in the map. In this case, they reflect these data for mowing. Spectral analysis using Multispectral imagery Estimatecontained amount of protein usingNDVIand show the result on the map
