Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) frameworks generates data for large and remote agricultural areas through sensors and use this data for crop predictions by several machine learning algorithms. Farming is the practice of producing crops, rearing of livestock, cultivation of soil and it is important for economic development of the country. Farmers have been following traditional farming practices till now. These techniques were imprecise and reduced productivity and time consumption. Determining the steps that essential for practicing at its appropriate season helps to increase the productivity of precision farming. In this research, the primary objectives are to enhance precision farming practices by introducing a comprehensive IoT-based framework and employing advanced machine learning algorithms. Therefore, this research work introduces crop recommendation and disease prediction that helps farmers to increase productivity and reduce manual labor. The proposed Multi-level Kronecker Guided Pelican Convolutional Neural Network (MKGPCNN) focuses on crop recommendation, providing forecasts for suitable crops in the agricultural sector. Simultaneously, the Combined Graph Sample and Aggregate Attention Network (CGSAAN) are introduced for crop disease identification and recommending appropriate fertilizers to manage diseases and enhance harvests. The evaluation of both systems on publicly accessible datasets, namely the crop recommendation dataset and the new plant diseases dataset, demonstrates higher accuracy rates of 99% and 98%, precision of 99.5% and 99%, recall of 99.6% and 98.9%. The results suggest that the introduced system have the potential to significantly assist farmers in smarter crop management and harvesting, contributing to increased productivity and reduced manual labor.
