Role of Artificial Intelligence in Agriculture: Current Scenario and Future Prospects

The book entitled “Role of Artificial Intelligence in Agriculture:
Current Scenario and Future Prospects” is an all-inclusive work on
the use of artificial intelligence in agriculture. The book is organized
as a textbook, but is planned to be of importance to a large audience
across disciplines.
The use of the new technical innovations to make farming more
productive remains one of the greatest needs. Present strategies to
step up agricultural production require high energy inputs and high
quality food requirements for the market.Scarcity and increased labor
costs, increased production costs and crop failures associated with
erratic pest and disease attack, rainfall failures, climate change and
soil fertility losses, fluctuating agricultural product market prices,
etc., have had a major negative effect on the socio-economic status
of this nation.On the other hand, the increase in population has
increased demand for food grains, resulting in inflation in agricultural
commodity prices. Using artificial intelligence, we can establish
smart farming practices to reduce farmers’ losses and provide them
with high yields.Utilizing artificial intelligence platforms, a large
amount of data from government and public websites or a real-time
monitoring of various data can then be analyzed precisely to enable
farmers to address all the uncertain issues faced by farmers in the
agriculture sector.
