Upliftment of Indian Agriculture through Precision Farming

Abstract

Farming is becoming a more difficult area to work in due to a lack of manpower needed to crop production. Precise agriculture is built on information technology, which allows farmers to acquire information and data to help them make better decisions. With the advent of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML), predictive and prescriptive analysis of even huge amounts of data is now possible .Sensors can be placed in the field to collect various data and based on the values collected, corresponding action can be taken remotely like spraying water and fertilizers etc .GIS and GPS can also be used to collect the data directly from the field.
