download PDFAbstract. Rising global populations and climate change pose significant challenges to traditional farming methods. To address these issues, artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a transformative force in agriculture, often referred to as “Smart Agriculture” or “AI-powered Agriculture.” This paper examines the multifaceted role of AI in revolutionizing farming processes. By leveraging AI technologies; farmers can enhance productivity, efficiency, and sustainability. This paper analyzes the diverse applications of AI in Agriculture, highlighting its potential to overcome critical farming challenges. It also explores the opportunities for AI-driven innovation in shaping the future of agriculture. With a specific focus on precision farming techniques, the paper investigates the implications and potential benefits of AI integration. This exploration sheds light on how AI can transform agricultural practices for a more sustainable future. This paper makes a comprehensive summary of the research on artificial intelligence technology in agriculture.
