WO-2026095786-A1 - PREVENTIVE, PREDICTIVE AND PRESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS PROCESS FOR PRECISION AGRICULTURE
Abstract
The purpose of the invention is to optimise the analysis of plant, water and soil samples sent by producers to laboratories, using artificial intelligence to enhance agricultural management, using a wider dataset than in traditional agricultural management. The invention analyses physical, chemical and biological variables of the studies and compares them with the weather history and production objectives. Potential cultivation problems are identified, the most critical problems are prioritised, and action plans balancing all the variables involved in growing the plant are proposed, thereby reducing the use of fertilisers and agrochemicals. The data are captured every 15 minutes on the piece of land, enabling continuous adjustments in relation to the soil, irrigation and the plant. The invention generates customised plans for nutrition, fertility, irrigation, pests and diseases, providing specific recommendations to maximise the yield, quality, profitability and sustainability of agricultural production.

Description
PREVENTIVE, PREDICTIVE AND PRESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS PROCESS FOR PRECISION AGRICULTURE TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to the technical field of precision agriculture, computer systems programmed with operations useful in agricultural management, computer systems that are programmed or configured to generate what the possible problems that the crop will have during the productive cycle and prioritize them to indicate what the action plan is to address them, and specifically to a predictive and prescriptive analysis process implementing the use of artificial intelligence to extract and analyze information of Atmospheric weather (historical, present and forecast), correlated with the physical, chemical and biological variables from laboratory studies related to soil, water, plant and microbiology to detect physiological and metabolic problems in the crop, as well as the real-time analysis of the interaction of representative variables of Plant, Water, Soil and Atmospheric Weather (historical, present and forecast) with the purpose of understanding, in a growing way, the functioning of nature in the interaction of these variables. Prescriptive analysis is used to generate personalized recommendations for agricultural inputs to achieve the performance, quality, profitability and sustainability objectives of the agricultural production unit. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Precision agriculture has emerged as an advanced practice in the agricultural sector, based on the incorporation of technologies such as remote sensing, data analysis and geographic information systems (GIS) to improve decision making. This discipline uses detailed data on soil conditions, climate, humidity, topography, and other environmental factors to manage crops with greater precision. With the development of new predictive and prescriptive analysis techniques, farmers can now anticipate events and make optimal decisions about managing their crops and land, reducing costs, increasing productivity, and conserving natural resources. Predictive analytics in precision agriculture refers to the use of large volumes of data, often in real time, to predict future crop scenarios. Through machine learning algorithms and advanced statistical techniques, it is possible to accurately forecast critical factors such as crop yield, potential pests, soil nutrient and moisture levels, and even weather conditions. This predictive capability not only helps optimize crop planning but also allows for minimizing climate risks and improving the management of water and fertilizer resources. Prescriptive analytics, on the other hand, goes a step further, not only predicting outcomes but also recommending specific actions based on previous analyses. Prescriptive systems in precision agriculture analyze large volumes of historical and current data to suggest optimized interventions, such as the best time to sow, the optimal amount of fertilizers or pesticides to apply, and the most suitable irrigation techniques. This approach facilitates more informed decision-making, tailored to the specific conditions of each agricultural plot. Advances in sensor technologies, drones, and satellites have contributed enormously to the development of predictive analytics and Prescriptive technology in precision agriculture. These devices collect detailed, georeferenced information that enables high-resolution analysis, providing a holistic view of crop and soil health. Combined with the use of artificial intelligence (AI), farmers can efficiently manage large areas of farmland, optimizing resource use and improving the sustainability of the agricultural sector. Predictive and prescriptive analytics are key components of modern precision agriculture, enabling data-driven management and providing farmers with a competitive advantage. These tools not only maximize crop yields but also help address challenges related to climate change, resource scarcity, and global food demand. Currently, there are various technologies being applied to improve production processes in agriculture. All these technologies have a common objective: "To help the farmer improve food production in the crop he manages." Mexican patent application number MX/a/2023/000724, entitled "PREDICTION OF HORTICULTURAL YIELD FROM FIELD LOCATION USING MULTIBAND AERIAL IMAGES," describes its main objective as helping farmers predict crop yield through the processing of multiband aerial images that feed a machine learning system. This system compares current fruit growth from the aerial image with a historical database of pre-labeled images to predict the potential yield at harvest. Based on the information contained in the aerial images, and by analyzing the colorimetry that highlights the color range, the presence of certain elements can be inferred, such as... Nitrogen levels are measured, and based on this, the farmer can be advised whether or not to apply fertilizer. The technology described i
