Home: TRD: Resource utilisation: AGRI-OUTLOOK: NDVI FOR June 2007

21 – 30 June 2007 compared with 21 – 30 June 2006

The NDVI for the 21 - 31 June 2007 is mostly similar or slightly higher than during the previous year for most parts of the Western Cape Province.


21 – 30 June 2007 compared with the long-term mean

The NDVI is mostly normal to above normal over most of the province.


May 2007 and June 2007 compared with long term

Notice that two images (NDVI difference map and Percentage Average Seasonal Average map) and therefore two different approaches have been included to explain the current season regarding plant growth activity in this province.

It is obvious from these images that the winter rain areas clearly indicate above normal photosynthetic activity, while the Central Karoo, especially more to the east show areas below normal photosynthesis.
