Remote Sensing and AI-based Monitoring of Legume Crop Health and Growth

Abstract

Background: For the enhancement of agricultural productivity, while ensuring sustainability, this study delves into the under-explored domain of monitoring legume crop health and growth. Traditional methods of crop assessment encounter limitations, prompting a push for innovation by integrating advanced remote sensing technologies and artificial intelligence (AI). The purpose is to revolutionize crop assessment techniques and overcome existing constraints. Methods: The data was collected using a combination of satellite imagery and ground-based sensors, resulting in a rich repository of multispectral and spatial information. By using the capabilities of AI, a robust model was developed to interpret the gathered data, offering a detailed insight into the health and growth dynamics of legume crops. The AI algorithms not only identify anomalies but also forecast future states, facilitating timely interventions and informed decision-making in agriculture. Result: The findings of this study signify a significant change in precision agriculture, where the synergy of remote sensing and AI optimizes resource allocation, minimizes environmental impact and maximizes crop yields. The research unlocks the potential to transform legume farming practices, promoting sustainability and ushering in an era of data-driven cultivation. The implications extend beyond the legume crop sector, influencing the broader agricultural landscape with the promise of more efficient and sustainable practices.
