Book Description
Digital Twins, Artificial Intelligence, and Internet of Things for a Sustainable Food Production in Agriculture: Transformative Technologies looks at how advanced technologies like digital twins, artificial intelligence (AI), and the Internet of Things (IoT) can be used in farming.
The book discusses how these innovations enhance resource efficiency, support sustainable food systems, and improve crop and livestock management. Focusing on both the theoretical and practical applications, it provides readers with current insight into sustainable agricultural practices. It also offers insights into how digital twins, AI, and IoT are integrated into agriculture for sustainable food production. The book will cover how digital copies of farms, smart computers, AI, IoT, and connected devices help farmers optimize food production. It draws its strength from a multidisciplinary approach with an emphasis on practical applications and future prospects in smart agriculture toward improved efficiency, sustainability, and profitability in food production.
This book is suitable for a broad academic audience, including undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and professionals in fields such as agricultural science, environmental science, computer science, and engineering, as well as policymakers and government functionaries. It is meant to be used as a textbook or additional reading for courses on precision farming, smart agriculture, and sustainable food systems. The content is designed to be understandable to people who have just a cursory understanding of technology and agriculture, but it also provides in-depth analysis for practitioners and advanced students.
