Abstract

ABSTRACT Crop yield forecasting has been well studied in recent decades and is significant in protecting food security. Crop growth is a complex phenomenon that depends on various factors. Machine learning and deep learning trends have emerged as important innovations in this field. We propose to utilize crop, weather, and soil data from agricultural datasets to evaluate yield prediction behavior. Paddy being a staple food crop in India is chosen for this research. In this paper, we propose hybrid architecture for paddy yield prediction, namely, MLR-LSTM, which combines Multiple Linear Regression and Long Short-Term Memory to utilize their complementary nature. The results are compared with traditional machine learning methods such as Support vector machine, Long short-term memory and Random forest method. Evaluation metrics such as Coefficient of Determination (R2), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Mean Square Error (MSE), F1 score, Recall, and Precision are used to evaluate the hybrid method and traditional models. The results obtained from the proposed hybrid method indicates that the hybrid model delivers better R2, RMSE, MAE, MSE values of 0.93, 0.1549, 0.199, and 0.024 respectively.
