Resumen

This study focuses on remote sensing and monitoring of asparagus crops in the provinces of Ica and Trujillo, highlighting their importance in global food security. Using satellite images and temperature data, productivity was compared using the NDWI, NDVI, and EVI indices. The Grad-CAM technique was used to analyze the AlexNet Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model, seeking to improve productivity. Although AlexNet validated the satellite images, it showed some confusion in regions of medium and low productivity. The model, supported by Grad-CAM, will contribute to the monitoring of optimal climatic conditions.
