Abstract	Efficient irrigation scheduling in the command areas of irrigation projects requires timely and accurate information about the type and extent of crops cultivated in the area. In India, traditional methods of crop estimation rely on field enumeration conducted by village revenue personnel who maintain land records. In certain states where land records are not available, crop estimates are based on sample field surveys. However, these approaches generate a large volume of data that are compiled in a decentralized manner, leading to potential issues with accuracy and timeliness of the information. The use of satellite-based NDVI data has grown in recent years as a result of developments in remote sensing technology. Efforts are taken to estimate onion crop acreage in Solapur district for the year 2021-2022 by using NDVI method. That can be useful for further study or to check health, disease, growth, area of onion production by using RS-GIS.
