Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed agribusiness by optimizing processes, improving productivity, and supporting sustainable practices in response to challenges such as climate change, increasing food demand, and sustainability requirements. This study addresses the applications of AI in the management of agro-industrial systems, highlighting its technical foundations, practical benefits, and contributions to precision agriculture, climate forecasting, automation, and sustainability. AI is applied in soil monitoring, pest control, efficient irrigation, and reducing pesticide usage, integrating climatic and productive data for more assertive decision-making. Moreover, automation with autonomous vehicles and the use of drones enhance monitoring and productive efficiency. These technological advances drive food security and modernize the agro-industrial chain, from agricultural production to commercialization. By combining AI with big data and IoT, agro-industrial systems achieve greater efficiency and competitiveness, addressing the challenges of climate volatility and global market demands, fostering innovations aligned with sustainability and sector growth.
