Digital farming refers to the use of modern technologies like data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), sensors, and the Internet of Things (IoT) to enhance agricultural productivity and sustainability. It integrates digital tools and smart systems to monitor, analyze, and manage farming activities in real time, helping farmers make data-driven decisions for improved crop yields, resource management, and cost-efficiency.

1. Precision AgricultureDefinition: It uses data to ensure that crops and soil receive exactly what they need for optimal health and productivity.Tools: GPS-guided machinery, drones, satellite imagery, and AI-based analytics.Benefits: Reduces water, fertilizer, and pesticide use while increasing crop yield and quality.
2. Internet of Things (IoT)Definition: IoT in agriculture involves sensors placed in fields to monitor environmental conditions such as soil moisture, temperature, and crop growth.Tools: Soil sensors, climate sensors, and smart irrigation systems.Benefits: Farmers receive real-time data about their fields, allowing for more efficient resource use and quick responses to changes in conditions.
3. Big Data & AnalyticsDefinition: The large volumes of data generated by sensors, drones, and satellites are analyzed using machine learning and AI algorithms to uncover patterns and make predictions.Tools: Cloud-based platforms and data analytics software.Benefits: Helps farmers predict weather changes, optimize planting schedules, forecast yields, and detect pest infestations early.
