Cultivation Planning Across Europe using Machine Learning Techniques

Öz

Due to their limited accessibility to the soil information and price prediction information of the agricultural products, farmers grow their crops based on the common practice in their regions. This leads to non-sustainability in agriculture and imbalance between farmers' production and customers' demand, respectively. To address the above-mentioned issues, we propose an ICT-based cultivation planning policy and system, named AgriTrade. The basic operation of AgriTrade lies in, first, incenting farmers to participate in the cultivation planning in an interactive manner using a mobile app, second, employing machine learning algorithms to provide high precision price and soil information for farmers using data collected from across the supply chain. To demonstrate the feasibility of AgriTrade, we carry out a pilot use case by collecting the last 15 years’ tomato prices of Europe and the statistics of tomato cultivation of farmers in Turkey, which is one of the biggest tomato exporters of the EU. AgriTrade forecasts the future tomato prices based on the historical tomato prices of the EU. We compare the traditional way marketing and forecast-based marketing of tomatoes: While the traditional way marketing is to immediately sell the product when it is grown, the forecast-based marketing is to store the product until the time the product's prices is higher based on the predicted prices and to sell it. The results show that when the farmers of Turkey apply the forecast-based marketing, they can remarkably increase their profits around 9.1% compared with the traditional way marketing.
