Albedo is an important parameter in radiation balance, energy balance, atmospheric correction of remote sensing data and weather forecasting models. The values of albedo of agricultural area vary with changes in biophysical parameters at different phenophases of the crop. Spectral and broadband albedo of visible-infrared bands for wheat canopy was estimated with numerical and spectral integration of hemispherical directional reflectance factors (HDRFs). The HDRF measurements on wheat were acquired at 54 view angles (6 azimuthal planes × 9 view zenith angles) to cover the hemispheric span up to 60° view zenith at 7-8 days’ interval during early growth stages to physiological maturity. Canopy and atmospheric parameters were measured parallel to HDRFs of the crop. The spectral and broadband albedo of wheat varies in decreasing pattern with advancement of growth stages. Visible-infrared albedo of crop was maximum at early growth stages (tillering and booting; 0.23) and minimum at late growth stages (late milking and dough; 0.15). The albedo values retrieved from HDRF in this investigation can be useful for phenophase specific applications in cropland fluxes algorithms, crop phenotyping, regional climate modeling and other remote sensing studies.
