Keywords:
Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, Vertical Irrigation, Smart Agriculture, Water Efficiency, Machine Learning.Abstract
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things
(IoT) technologies has revolutionized agricultural practices, particularly in vertical
irrigation systems. This paper explores the application of AI-powered IoT devices to
optimize water usage, enhance crop yield, and reduce operational costs in vertical
farming. By leveraging real-time data analytics, machine learning algorithms, and
automated control systems, these technologies enable precise irrigation management.
The study presents a methodology for implementing such systems, analyzes their
performance through empirical data, and discusses their implications for sustainable
agriculture. Results indicate significant improvements in water efficiency and crop
productivity, with potential scalability across diverse farming environments.
