Abstract
In most nations, agriculture is the main industry providing employment.
Agricultural activities used to be restricted to the cultivation of food and crops, but they
have expanded over time to include the processing, production, marketing, and
distribution of crops and livestock products. Agriculture related approaches or practices
must be continuously reviewed with the goal of presenting innovative approaches to
sustaining and improving agricultural activities. Currently, agricultural activities serve
as the primary source of livelihood, increasing GDP, being one of the sources of
national trade, reducing unemployment, and providing raw materials for production in
other industries.
Inadequate soil treatment, disease and pest infestation, among other issues, are only a
few of the difficulties this industry must overcome in order to maximize productivity.
There have been some difficulties with the increased use of technology in this industry,
including the need for large amounts of data, low output, and the most obvious
difficulty, the knowledge gap between farmers and technology.
When compared to earlier more conventional methods, agricultural practices, and
activities have significantly improved since technology entered the field. Technologies
like the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have been a few of the
technologies that are widely used in these sectors with projects for improving crop
production, disease prediction, continuous monitoring, efficient supply chain
management, water waste and operational efficiency just to name a few but, this of this
project will focus more on AI, more specifically on Explainable Artificial Intelligence
(ExAI or XAI).
