Smart farming with agri CNN-LSTM fusion: leveraging soil suitability analysis using real-time sensor data
摘要
Agri CNN-LSTM Fusion (Agricultural Convolutional Neural Network—Long Short-Term Memory Fusion) is an advanced model that uses real-time data from soil sensors to evaluate a soil's suitability for crop production. The model aims to resolve the issues with conventional farming methods by offering a data-driven substitute for spontaneity in decision-making. A significant research gap is a lack of an integrated method that incorporates temporal and spatial soil features for accurate classification. A data-intensive preprocessing workflow was used to process soil data obtained from the National Institute of Technology, Trichy field, through various sensors. Complex patterns in soil data are identified by this model, which is essential for a precise evaluation of soil health. Hyperparameter optimization further improves the model, which yields precise and consistent predictions that classify soil as “Fit” or “Not Fit” for crop cultivation. The experimental observations showed that AgriCNN-LSTMFusion attained an accuracy of 98.5%, establishing it as a dependable method for real-time soil suitability analysis. The model allows farmers to make informed decisions and optimize resource use by reducing uncertainty in soil assessment. By combining predictive modeling with soil sensor data, agricultural efficiency can be enhanced and sustainable growth encouraged.
