One of the efforts made by the government to maintain food security is to provide statistical data on rice production through accurate calculation of harvest areas using the area sampling framework approach. Although area sampling framework surveys produce accurate estimates, the costs required are quite high when applying this method. To overcome this problem, one solution that can be applied is to utilize satellite imagery to monitor the greenness index of plants using the enhanced vegetation index. However, in real conditions, the Landsat-8 optical satellite is susceptible to cloud cover, which results in missing data. This study aims to model the phase of rice plants using the regression logistic multinomial model by utilizing Landsat-8 satellites and k-nearest neighbors imputation handling to overcome missing data. The results showed that the model had varying performance in each phase, with an average balanced accuracy of 66.45%. This figure shows that the model can classify the area sampling framework data imputed using the k-nearest neighbors imputation method well. The model shows optimal performance in the late vegetative and generative phases but is less effective in detecting the harvest, puso, and non-rice paddy phases.
