Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) paves a new direction in the domain of smart farming and precision agriculture. Smart farming is an upgraded version of agriculture which is aimed at improving the cultivation practices and yield to a certain extent. In smart farming, IoT devices are linked among one another with new technologies to improve the agricultural practices. Smart farming makes use of IoT devices and contributes in effective decision making. Rice is the major food source in most of the countries. So, it becomes inevitable to detect rice plant diseases during early stages with the help of automated tools and… More >

Abstract To meet the food requirements of the seven billion people on Earth, multiple advancements in agriculture and industry have been made. The main threat to food items is from diseases and pests which affect the quality and quantity of food. Different scientific mechanisms have been developed to protect plants and fruits from pests and diseases and to increase the quantity and quality of food. Still these mechanisms require manual efforts and human expertise to diagnose diseases. In the current decade Artificial Intelligence is used to automate different processes, including agricultural processes, such as automatic harvesting. Machine Learning techniques are becoming… More >

Abstract We are associating the solutions of stochastic and deterministic vector borne plant disease model in this manuscript. The dynamics of plant model depends upon threshold number P^∗. If P^∗ <1 then condition helpful to eradicate the disease in plants while P^∗ >1 explains the persistence of disease. Inappropriately, standard numerical systems do not behave well in certain scenarios. We have been proposed a structure preserving stochastic non-standard finite difference system to analyze the behavior of model. This system is dynamical consistent, positive and bounded as defined by Mickens. More >
