Abstract
The intelligent transformation of agriculture places plant growth prediction as a critical component for ensuring food security, optimizing resource allocation, and enhancing sustainable productivity. Traditional methods reliant on empirical or simplified mechanistic models struggle with the nonlinearity, high dimensionality, and spatiotemporal heterogeneity inherent in agro-ecological systems. This study investigates the paradigm shift enabled by agricultural big data integrating multi-source, real-time streams from IoT sensors, satellites, UAVs, and farm management systems. We propose a ``Multi-source Data Assimilation and Hybrid Intelligence'' (MDA-HI) framework that synergistically coupl... More >
