The FAO projects a 2‑billion‑person population increase by 2050 with only a 4% rise in arable land, underscoring the need for more efficient farming that AI technologies can provide by enabling higher yields, quality, and faster market access. The paper envisions how AI can energize diverse agricultural sectors. It examines future AI‑driven ideas and the challenges they may face.
The United Nations FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) states that the world population would increase by another 2 billion in 2050 while the additional land area under cultivation will only account to 4% at that time. In such circumstance more efficient farming practices can be attained using the recent technological advancements and solutions to current bottlenecks in farming. A direct application of AI (Artificial Intelligence) or machine intelligence across the farming sector could act to be an epitome of shift in how farming is practiced today. Farming solutions which are AI powered enables a farmer to do more with less, enhancing the quality, also ensuring a quick GTM (go-to-market strategy) strategy for crops. The current paper throws a vision of how the diverse sectors of agriculture can be fuelled using AI. It also investigates the AI powered ideas in for future and the challenges anticipated in future.
