This paper synthesizes current challenges and solutions in AI-driven yield prediction. We review how machine learning (ML) and deep learning models (e.g. Random Forests, gradient boosting, convolutional neural networks, recurrent networks) have been applied to large multi-modal datasets (satellite VIs, weather, soil sensors, farm records) to forecast yields .
