Revolutionizing Agriculture: The Polyhouse Paradigm and AI Integration in Modern Farming Practices


Abstract


The global agricultural landscape has undergone a significant transformation, marked by the integration of technological innovations and modern farming practices. This review explores the latest agricultural solutions, examining their applications, limitations, and pivotal role in advancing crop development. The shift from traditional to modern agricultural practices is highlighted, showcasing the dynamic nature of the sector. The paper focuses on cutting-edge approaches like polyhouses, providing controlled environments to protect crops from adverse weather conditions and external threats. Complementary practices such as mulching, chemigation, agroecology, and hydroponics are explored for their unique advantages in achieving sustainable and efficient agricultural systems. A crucial aspect of modernization involves the strategic deployment of sensors for real-time monitoring of vital parameters like soil moisture, nutrient levels, and pest presence. Integrating sensor data with advanced technologies enables farmers to make informed, data-driven decisions, optimizing resource use and minimizing environmental impact. Recent technological advancements, including the Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), have revolutionized farming by introducing unprecedented changes in traditional approaches. This paradigm shift emphasizes smart and precision agriculture, leveraging innovative techniques and tools to enhance efficiency, productivity, and sustainability.
