I am looking for a place to send a student to spend about six months developing a research project in this thematic area
Space Applications Center under Indian Space Research Organisation @ Ahmedabad, Regional Remote Sensing Service Centers like Bangalore/Jodhpur , National Remote Sensing Agency @ Hyderabad-to name a few are some of the places which fit your requirements.
I agree with the previous suggestions. I would add the "French school", in particular INRA. You may read the following paper, which have as first author a former Argentinian PhD student at INRA: "Remote sensing capabilities to estimate pasture production in France" (2004) published in the International Journal of Remote Sensing, 25(23), 5359-5372 (authors: Bella, D., Faivre, R., Ruget, F., Seguin, B., Guérif, M., Combal, B., ... & Rebella, C.).
Talk with Keith Weber, Idaho State University: http://gisci.isu.edu/kweber.html
I appreciate the suggestions. They will give me a path to contact. Thank you all.
As suggested previously, ITC would be a good place - far cheaper than study in the US, and in an extremely international environment (we've had students in the past from some 170 countries, and staff from over 30 who have often lived and worked in non-Western countries). Strong focus on natural resource issues, see for example http://www.itc.nl/natural-resources
If the student wants an experience downunder - Ian Yule at Massey University, NZ
