Leveraging AI in Smart Agro-Informatics: A Review of Data Science Applications

Abstract

In recent years, the integration of data science and artificial intelligence (AI) in agriculture has transformed traditional farming practices into smart and efficient systems. This paper explores the burgeoning field of Smart Agro-Informatics, focusing on the application of data science techniques and AI technologies to optimize agricultural processes, improve yield prediction, and enhance resource management. We delve into the key components of Smart Agro-Informatics, including data collection methods, machine learning algorithms, and predictive analytics, highlighting their role in revolutionizing modern agriculture. Through case studies and examples, we demonstrate how AI-driven solutions are addressing challenges such as climate variability, resource scarcity, and crop diseases, thereby promoting sustainable agricultural practices and ensuring food security. Furthermore, we discuss the implications of Smart Agro-Informatics on global food production, environmental conservation, and socio-economic development. By leveraging data-driven insights and AI-powered technologies, the agricultural sector can adapt to evolving challenges and capitalize on new opportunities, paving the way for a more resilient and productive future.
