Automating Greenhouse Gas Monitoring with Artificial Intelligence for Sustainable Agriculture

Abstract

This research focused on the application of AI to support automatic tracking of GHG emissions in the agricultural sector, one of the major contributors to emissions. The proposed system for GHG tracking was designed with IoT sensors, satellites, and record-keeping, making it scalable and efficient compared to previous methods. Some of the findings reveal that AI models are highly accurate in estimating emissions through models such as Gradient Boosting Machines, hence cutting down the cost of manual exercise by an average of 29.7%. Our analysis yields strong positive relationships between emissions and environmental conditions, especially soil moisture content. Nevertheless, such issues as data protection and integration, which are regarded as the major concerns in AI development, this research proves that AI in sustainable agriculture can be effective and beneficial in combating climate change and meeting environmental requirements.
