Precision Agriculture for Sustainability is written by Narendra Khatri and published by CRC Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1000955532 (ISBN 10) and 9781000955538 (ISBN 13).

This new book delves into how modern technologies—i.e., global positioning systems (GPS), unmanned aerial vehicles (drones), image processing methods, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning—are being used to make agriculture more farmer-friendly and more economically profitable. The volume focuses on the use of smart sensors, actuators, and decision support systems to provide intelligent data about crop health and for monitoring for yield prediction, soil quality, nutrition requirement prediction, etc. The authors discuss robotic-based innovations in agriculture, soft computing methodologies for crop forecasting, machine learning techniques to classify and identify plant diseases, deep convolutional neural networks for recognizing nutrient deficiencies, and more.
