Artificial Intelligence (AI) Transforming Indian Agriculture

• AI in Indian agriculture refers to the deployment of machine-learning, computer vision, NLP chatbots and predictive analytics — anchored on the Digital Agriculture Mission (DAM) and AgriStack Digital Public Infrastructure — for pest surveillance, yield estimation, weather advisories and crop insurance.
• Relevant for UPSC across GS-III (agriculture, S&T, e-governance application in farming) and GS-II (welfare delivery, schemes); examiners increasingly test scheme names, year of launch and implementing ministries.
