- OBJECTIVE & SCOPE OF THE PROJECT The scope of the project is to prediction of crops can be informed to agriculturists in time basis. Many Machine Learning techniques have been used to analyse the agriculture parameters. Some of the techniques in different aspects of agriculture are studied by a literature study. Blooming Neural networks, soft computing techniques plays significant part in providing recommendations. Considering the parameter like production and season, more personalized and relevant recommendations can be given to farmers which makes them to yield good volume of production.

An agricultural biologist was evaluating two newly developed varieties of wheat as potential crops. In an experiment, Seedings were germinated on moist paper towels at 20°C for 48 hours. Oxygen consumption of the two-day-old seedlings was measured at different temperatures. The data are shown in the graph below. CUMULATIVE OXYGEN CONSUMPTION O Variety A 7"C - Variety A 17e O Variety B 7°C • Variety B 17°C 20 40 Time (min) 60 8. In a second experiment, variety A seedlings at both temperatures were treated with a chemical that prevents NADH from being oxidized to NAD*. Predict he most likely effect of the chemical on metabolism and oxygen consumption of the treated seedlings. Explain your prediction. v + , N - C (qu) Oxygen Consumptionarrow_forward
