FarmGPT: An Explainable AI Powered Smart Agriculture System for Crop Recommendation and Decision Support

Abstract Agriculture remains a critical pillar of the global economy, yet farmers face persistent challenges in optimal crop selection due to dynamic environmental
conditions and a lack of interpretable guidance. While machine learning (ML) models offer high predictive accuracy, their black-box nature limits adoption among nontechnical users. This paper presents FarmGPT, an explainable AI-based crop recommendation and agricultural decision support system. FarmGPT employs a Random Forest classifier achieving 98.2% accuracy, trained on agro
meteorological parameters including nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), temperature, humidity, soil pH, and rainfall. SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) is integrated to provide transparent, feature-level justifications
for each recommendation. The system further incorporates a CNN-based plant disease detection module trained on the PlantVillage dataset, a regression-based yield prediction engine, real-time weather integration via OpenWeatherMap API, and an INR profit estimation module. Built on a full
stack Flask–Node.js–React architecture, FarmGPT delivers comprehensive, real-time agricultural intelligence through a conversational interface. Evaluation results confirm 98.2% crop recommendation accuracy, 90% disease detection
accuracy in user trials, and a System Usability Scale (SUS) score of 79.3.
