“We’re at beginning of a golden age of AI. Recent advancements have already led to invention that previously lived in the realm of science fiction – and we have only scratched the surface of what’s possible”

– JEFF BEZOS

AI refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions.

In this article, I will cover how Artificial Intelligence is making a revolution in agriculture by replacing traditional methods.

Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Agriculture:

AI can be applied cross disciplinary and it can also bring a paradigmshift in how we see farming Today. It is   proposed   to make use of Digital solution  aided   with Artificial   intelligence   touplift the habitat of the trampled farmer community while providing yet a new opportunityfor business and entrepreneurs by enabling smart farm as a service.

crop health monitoring system:

Now a days soil quality is degrading and it’s hard to determine the quality of the soil.Due to increasing this type of problem an AI-based application that can identify the nutrient deficiencies in soil including plant pests and diseases by which farmers can also get an idea to use fertilizer which helps to improve harvest quality.

Growth driven by Internet of Things:

Digital transformation is disrupting theagricultural world. IoT technologies   allow   correlations  of structured and  unstructureddata to provide insights into food production. The IoT device includes   the   transducer   that   probes   the   various   parameters   of environment.The data can be collected at required time intervals either by installingWiFi active  hot spot towers as required for entire  field  coverage.

weather forecasting:

Now a days, because of the polution  weather can change any time any where. It is the main problem of the farmers.With help of Artificial Intelligence farmers can analyze weather conditions by using weather forecasting which helps they plan the type of crop can be grown.

 

Drone Based Technology:

One of the most promising areas is agriculture, where drones have the potential to addressmajor challenges. Drone technology is giving agriculture a high-tech makeover.It helps the farmer to identify pests and bacteria helping farmers to timely use of pest control .

Agricultural Robotics:

These types of robots are trained to check the quality of crops and detect weed with picking and packing of crops at the same time. This type of robot is trained to control weeds and harvest crops at a faster pace with higher volumes compared to humans.

detect the pests:

Pests are one of the worst enemies of the farmers which damages crops.AI systems use satellite images and compare them with historical data using AI algorithms and detect that if any insect has landed and which type of insect has landed like the locust, grasshopper, etc.

Conclusion:

Artificial Intelligence in agriculture not only helping farmers to automate their farming but also  improve their knowledge about soil, crops and mainly the technology. In future we will provide more useful applications to this sector helping the world deal with food production issues .
