Innovations in Agri-Tech: A Review of Artificial Intelligence Applications and Challenges in Modern Agriculture

摘要

Artificial intelligence (AI) is driving a massive shift in the agriculture industry, which is essential to both global food security and economic stability. This review article explores the use of AI technologies in agriculture, outlining their current and potential future applications while charting their evolution. We examine several AI applications such as computer vision, machine learning, robots and the (IoT) Internet of Things, highlighting their contributions to increasing efficiency, streamlining resource allocation, and strengthening decision-making. Machine learning techniques are utilized for predictive analytics in disease identification and crop yield estimation, while computer vision supports plant health monitoring and harvesting automation. Planting, weeding, and harvesting chores are revolutionized by robotics, and data collecting for precision agriculture is made easier by IoT devices in conjunction with sensors. Additionally, by offering indepth analyses of the soil and crops, drones and satellite imagery are essential to precision farming. The technological, financial, and social barriers to the broad adoption of AI are also covered in this study. These barriers include poor data quality, expensive implementation, and moral dilemmas with regard to labour displacement and environmental effects. In this paper, we propose that the future of global food security and sustainability depends on the strategic application of AI in agriculture. In order to fully realize the potential of artificial intelligence in agriculture Strategic implementation will determine the sustain ability and future of global food security. In this order, this study attempts to direct future research and policy development by offering a thorough overview of existing technology, applications, and difficulties.
