Conclusion
3.
4. • Sector status in India
▫ Acquired 14% of India's GDP
▫ Means of living for almost 66% of the employed class in India
▫ Occupied almost 43% of India's geographical area
5. ▫ Opens competition for agriculture products
▫ Removal of unnecessary restrictions — movement, stocking.
▫ Good price to farmer
▫ Substantial technology growth in coming years
Steps Already Taken at Government Level
6. Identified Areas for enhancing Agriculture sector
• Needs monitoring on
▫ Agricultural Crop Conditions
▫ Weather and Climate
▫ Ecosystems
• Decision support for agricultural planning and Policy-Making
• On the basis of Artificial Intelligence interest
▫ Computational Intelligence in Agriculture and the Environment
▫ Intelligent environment control for plant production systems
▫ Intelligent robots in agriculture
▫ An expert geographical information system for land evaluation
▫ Artificial neural network for plant classification using image processing.
▫ Control of green house.
10. Intelligent Environment Control For Plant Production
System
Why it is required?
• To increase productivity of crops
• Care for special herbal valued plants, environment diverse
plants etc., which in turn increases our export value
• To develop decision making support
13. Plant Growth Optimization Problem
• In plant production, good fruit yield requires an optimal balance
between
• Vegetative growth (e.g. root, stem, leaf growth)
• Reproductive growth (e.g. flower and fruit growth)
• NNs and GA provides optimal set points of the nutrient concentration.
• The ratio of Total Leaf Length to Stem Diameter defines as a predictor
for plant production growth.
15. Displacement of a Robot
Currently, Research on “Agricultural robots” is active in Japan and Korea
16. Conclusion
• Need for AI focus on Agriculture sector is discussed
• Identified intelligent approaches which are useful for mechanizing
complex agricultural systems
• Growing Research and technology should contribute to the basic
amenities in agriculture
