Abstract -
The importance of carrying out effective and sustainable agriculture is getting more and more obvious. Modern computers and the internet have made it much easier to make graphics out of tabular data and give these graphics the qualities of animation and interactivity through data visualization. Investigate effects of climate change on crop yields over time, climate change effects on crop yield eclipsed by other developments (technology, crop mix change), help make informed decisions for sustainable growth. Agriculture yield data is used to analyze and improve the crop yield and represent in the form of a Graphs through data visualization technique. The visualization methods presented include interactive charts to enable our data users to drill down and focus on more detailed views of these data displays. Each of these methods facilitates the display of large volumes of data and allows data users to extract information from our statistics that is difficult or impossible to obtain from traditional static charts or tabular displays of data.
