AI Autonomous Agri-Drones with Smart Soil and Crop Health Monitoring

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Agriculture is being rapidly modernized through the inclusion of Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. Current systems, however, do not have integrated autonomous aerial monitoring with ground sensor intelligence for real-time actionable crop and soil health information. In this article, a new system of combining autonomous farming drones equipped with AI technology with smart networks of soil sensors for real-time monitoring, analysis, and action on farm data is proposed. Leveraging multispectral vision, AI- enabled disease identification, real-time soil parameter measurement, and actuation via drone precision, this system resolves crucial scaling, responsiveness, and sustainability constraints of current agriculture. The research describes the architecture of the system, principal technologies, implementation strategy, and gives a comparative review of its benefits compared to available models.
