Summary

Smart farming is an emerging concept that refers to managing farms using  technologies like IoT, robotics, drones and AI to increase the quantity and quality of products  while optimizing the human labor required by production. Scientists are working on smart  farming techniques to encounter abiotic stresses. The use of artificial intelligence and  nanotechnology are such environment-friendly technologies. Increase in nutrients and water  uptake, root elongation, growth hormones secretions, precipitation and chelation of toxic ions  are major characteristics which can enhance crop productivity under abiotic stresses. This Special  Issue will help to cover the knowledge gaps of the nutrients management in crops under abiotic  stress using smart farming. Therefore, we invite researchers to contribute to the Special Issue on  “Smart farming techniques for Nutrients Management and Better Agricultural Crops Yield under  Abiotic Stresses” which is intended to cover broad aspects of smart farming for nutrients  management as well as improvement in crops growth and productivity under abiotic stresses.
