Abstract

We live in a more advanced, technically sound and intelligent world thus to grow a healthy food there is a need for more intelligent tools, techniques and approaches in farming. Modern farmers have incredible resources to protect their crops from the threats that seem to be most efficient. Methods such as seed treatment precision application tools, predictive analytics and targeted pesticide solutions suite of innovative technologies. To track any disease, early and exact identification is necessary, ‘machine learning’ in agriculture provides more precise disease diagnosis which terminates the wastage of resources and energy from misdiagnosis. The software is utilized for diagnosis and to develop the management strategy by uploading images taken by smartphones, UAVs and land based rovers. Instead of synthesizing new chemicals, agro-based companies are trying out a new strategy using plant extracts, soil microbes, animal by-products and their combinations which are a bit more advanc
