Soil Health Assessment in Smart Farming

Soil is the very foundation of agriculture and its health directly determines crop productivity environmental sustainability and long-term food security. Yet despite being one of the most critical resources for human survival soil remains one of the least understood and least monitored components in modern farming systems. With the global demand for food production steadily rising farmers and researchers alike face a pressing challenge: how to accurately affordably and sustainably assess soil health in real time.Soil Health Assessment in Smart Farming: FPGA addresses this challenge head-on presenting a groundbreaking approach that combines deep learning models image processing techniques and FPGA-based embedded systems to deliver a portable real-time soil analysis solution. By integrating artificial intelligence (AI) with cutting-edge hardware platforms the book introduces a framework that not only advances scientific understanding but also has immediate practical relevance for farmers agronomists environmental scientists and technologists.
