Navigating the Future of Agriculture: A Comprehensive Review of Automatic All-Terrain Vehicles in Precision Farming

Enhancing agricultural productivity with current farming technologies depends greatly on improvements in agricultural vehicle technology, especially in precision farming. This analysis thoroughly examines the incorporation of autonomous all-terrain vehicles (AATVs) in precision agriculture, emphasizing their technological progress, uses, and future potential. AATVs revolutionize farming methods through the use of sophisticated sensors, artificial intelligence, and robotics, allowing for accurate and self-governing performance in a range of agricultural activities. They improve the management of resources, reduce environmental footprint, and boost effectiveness through the use of real-time data analysis to apply chemical fertilizers, insecticides, and other inputs precisely. Yet, obstacles including technological complexities, legislative obstacles, and worries regarding accessibility and affordability hinder broad acceptance. The future shows appealing developments, such as the incorporation of AATVs with advanced technologies like blockchain and IoT, suggesting enhanced capabilities. Although facing obstacles, AATVs represent innovation, offering a future where agriculture can be more sustainable, efficient, and productive. The shift towards precision agriculture represents a progression marked by technological advancements and a dedication to influencing a more sustainable future for farming practices worldwide. AATVs are evolving and playing a key role in transforming agricultural landscapes, envisioning a future where technology enhances efficient, sustainable, and responsible farming operations. © The Institution of Engineers (India) 2024.
