Farming in the Digital Age: Smart Agriculture with AI and IoT

Abstract

This review article titled “Revolutionizing Agriculture: The Impact of AI and IoT” delves into the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) in modern agriculture. It encapsulates the burgeoning wave of digitalization and its implications for data-driven farming practices. The paper comprehensively reviews the advancements in digital agriculture management, highlighting the integration of AI, IoT devices, machine learning, and sensor technology in enhancing farming efficiency and productivity. Emphasis is placed on the use of robotics, drones for crop monitoring, and smart irrigation systems, which leverage real-time data for optimized agricultural operations. The role of high-speed 5G networks in enabling these smart farming solutions is also discussed, particularly their impact on data transmission and connectivity in rural settings. Challenges and opportunities in implementing Smart Decision Support Systems (SDSS) in developing countries are explored, focusing on real-time soil analysis and decision-making aids for farmers. The review further discusses a proposed cloud-based system for remote farm monitoring, employing AI-based models for efficient data processing and improving farming practices. This article aims to provide a nuanced understanding of the current and future potential of AI and IoT in reshaping agricultural practices, addressing global food security challenges, and supporting sustainable development.
