Deploying and Evaluating a Smart-Agriculture Agentic Engine for Full-Season Soybean Farm Operations

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces FAIRY, a full-stack smart‑agriculture agent system deployed on a soybean research farm at Harbin Institute of Technology. FAIRY executes and evaluates end‑to‑end agronomic operations—from ridge preparation to storage—using an event‑driven world model that integrates machinery, sensors, drones, satellite data, weather, crop models, and historical yields. The system implements a comprehensive agentic stack and is used to benchmark nine state‑of‑the‑art agent controllers across 100 full‑season soybean scenarios, assessing success, spatiotemporal correctness, token cost, and edge‑device runtime.

Simulating the Marginal Green Contribution of AI Modules in a Smart-Agriculture Platform: Evidence from Two Monte Carlo Experiments

The paper evaluates the green benefits of individual AI modules within a smart‑agriculture platform through two Monte Carlo simulations. In Experiment 1, AI diagnosis significantly increases the likelihood of reducing pesticide and fertilizer use compared to traditional extension services, with up to a 49 % probability of a 20 % pesticide reduction when accuracy and adoption are high. Experiment 2 shows that adding AI irrigation scheduling to IoT‑based engineering yields a 5 percentage‑point increase in median water savings and a 30.5 % reduction in paddy methane emissions, while farmer adoption remains the key limiting factor for achieving green targets.
