An overview of smart agriculture

This section covers the key terms/definitions that are used in the smart agriculture domain. Understanding these terms is crucial to design and develop smart agriculture-related solutions.

Key terms/definitions

In this section, we will discuss some key technologies associated with smart agriculture:

  • Artificial Intelligence (AI): Accurate decision-making is the cornerstone of successful farming, and AI effectively complements/supplements a farmer’s ability to make sound judgments. AI can be used in all stages of crop cultivation – for example, if a crop is infected with a disease, AI provides recommendations to reduce crop wastage. AI is also used to estimate optimal farm input, forecast demand, predict price/yield, identify crops that fit the soil/environmental conditions, and determine the right time to harvest.
  • Automation: Automation can be used to start/stop the watering of crops (often remotely), either automatically...
