Abstract

The research paper aims to emphasize on Artificial Intelligence and use of digitization in water & agriculture significance in Sindh. Water and Agriculture Management has always been a crucial debate in Sindh. Somehow, the relevance of water management is related to agriculture development and growth; therefore, signifies the role of data sciences, Hydro-Agro Informatics (HAI). The HAI combines hydrology, agronomy and also informatics that is beneficial for agriculture practices. AI in agriculture and water involves procedures- technique of scientific technology and its application. The real advancement in water management can be possible with AI. The paper also focuses on few challenges that HAI focuses on includes water scarcity, efficiency in agriculture and irrigation methods as well as utilizing advance technology. Data Collection and sensors is major focus for increasing efficiency in agriculture and irrigation. The usage of utilizing advance technology in weather station is also an important concept in HAI. The study concludes IoT (Internet of Things) can be game changer for agriculture and irrigation best practices.
