Today, artificial intelligence and robots have become an integral part of most agricultural processes. Robots and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are being utilized for the benefit of farmers and the agriculture industry as a whole. 

Weather forecasting is one of the important aspects for farmers. Flying robots can help farmers with tasks such as crop monitoring, soil analysis and pest control, while AI software can help  predict weather conditions and make decisions about when to plant, harvest and apply pesticides, as well as reduce vulnerability to environmental extremes.
