Book excerpt: The Agricultural industry is always at risk - crops are affected by weather, diseases and pests. When a global pandemic hits suddenly, it becomes very difficult to manage various processes because most are not digital. In parallel, the rapid increase in the population and urbanization, demands more food production on less land. Farming under the demand pressure by increasing input consumption, leads to increases costs and negative impacts to the environment such as decreasing soil fertility continuously over time. There is therefore the need to move beyond traditional farming. To produce more yield in the agricultural field, there is the need to dig deep into the technological field and apply sensors, Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, cloud computing and machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques. Better decision making, prediction and reliability depend upon high level of knowledge base and perceptions.
