Computational AI and IT Solutions Helping Agriculture

<p>This Special Issue was a natural continuation of our previous Special Issue titled Internet and Computers for Agriculture; this one extended further covering recent and current progress in the application of computational solutions artificial intelligence (AI) and information technologies (IT) in modern agriculture. Currently rapid changes are taking place at a planetary scale including human population growth and global climatic and ecological changes resulting in a call for immediate sustainable and secure smart solutions for food production water supply greenhouse (GHG) gas emissions and environmental health.</p><p>This Special Issue provided a stage for the innovative research of scientists and entrepreneurs involved in the development and application of various software products and digital solutions for agriculture agroecosystems and natural ecosystems with applications in agriculture to be presented. The submission of original articles and reviews involved mobile apps web applications internet platforms Internet of Things (IoT) devices cloud technologies AI and machine learning (ML) methods and applications for precision agriculture monitoring cultivation harvesting marketing management decision making weather forecasting optimization natural language processing computer/machine vision drones real-time detection systems sensors for field operations smart agriculture machinery diagnostics species and disease recognition big data collection scientific-process-based mathematical modeling and machine learning modeling which can contribute to modern agriculture now and in the future.</p>
