Abstract

This study explores advanced machine learning techniques including Random Forests and Deep Neural Networks for predicting crop yields in semi-arid agricultural regions of India. Using satellite imagery and historical weather data spanning 15 years, our models achieve a prediction accuracy of 94.3%, significantly outperforming traditional statistical methods.
