Abstract

A farmer can use machine learning to make decisions about what crops to sow, how to care for those crops throughout the growing season, and how to predict crop yields. According to the World Health Organization, agriculture is essential to the nation’s quick economic development. Food security, access, and adoption are the three cornerstones of the organization. Without a doubt, the main priority is to ensure that there is enough food for everyone. Increasing agricultural yield can help ensure a sufficient supply. The country-wide variation in crop yields is substantial. As a result, this will be the foundation for research into whether cluster analysis can be used to identify crop yield patterns in a field. Previous study investigations were only marginally successful in accomplishing their primary intended objectives because of unstable conditions and imprecise methodology. The vast majority of farmers base their predictions of crop yield on prior observations of crop growth in their farms, which can be deceptive. Standard preprocessing methods and random cluster value selection are not always reliable, according to the literature. The proposed study overcomes the shortcomings of conventional methodology by highlighting the significance of machine learning-based classification/partitioning and hierarchical approaches in offering a trained analysis of yield prediction in the state of Karnataka. The dataset used for the study was collected from the ICAR-Taralabalu Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Davangere, Karnataka. In the two dataset analysis techniques employed in the study to find anomalies, crop area, and crop production are significant variables. Crop area and crop yield are important variables in the two dataset analysis methods used in the study to detect anomalies. The study emphasizes the importance of a mathematical model and algorithm for identifying yield trends, which can assist farmers in selecting crops that have a large seasonal impact on yield productivity.
