Unmanned aerial vehicle for the assessment of woody and herbaceous phytomass in Sahelian savanna ; Un dron para la evaluación de la fitomasa leñosa y herbácea de las sabanas sahelianas ; Un drone pour l’évaluation de la phytomasse ligneuse et herbacée des savanes sahéliennes
The phytomass of herbaceous and woody plants is the main source of feed for pastoral livestock in the Sahelian savanna.
