Abstract : The agricultural sector is facing unprecedented challenges due to increasing global population, climate change, and resource limitations. Smart farming, which integrates modern technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) into traditional agricultural practices, offers innovative solutions to address these challenges. This research paper examines the evolving role of AI in smart farming, its applications, benefits, challenges, and potential impact on agricultural efficiency and sustainability. Through a comprehensive review of literature as well as analysis of case-studies, this study emphasizes on how AI-driven systems can revolutionize various aspects of farming, including precision agriculture, crop management, livestock monitoring, disease detection, and resource optimization. Furthermore, it discusses ethical considerations and the necessity for data privacy and security in AI-enabled farming systems. This study underlines the transformative capacity of AI in reshaping the future of agriculture and ensuring food security in a rapidly changing world.
