This is a critical book that examines the power of artificial intelligence to transform the health of crops. It covers the latest AI technologies being used for proactive and accurate protection of plants. The book is a detailed guide on drones and robotics that are used to monitor and spray specific areas and provide highly advanced image processing that help in detecting diseases early on in crops such as wheat, cotton, and tomato. It fills the disconnect between data science and agronomy, including smart sensing, predictive analytics, and integration with precision agriculture systems. The book sheds light on useful ways of managing the pest population sustainably and addresses ethical challenges that define the future of AI-enabled agriculture.
