Check out this peer-reviewed conference paper that looks at the use of a chatbot to aid farmers in improving their agricultural practices. The chatbot uses AI, AR retrieval, "on-demand service provision, and access to farmers' requirements and occurrences from written literature," to help give the most tailored, appropriate responses, resulting in better decisions and therefore better ROI for farmers. The chatbot additionally aims to improve agriculture production using the permaculture concept and raise awareness among farmers. This paper looks at the study of this chatbot and shows its potential in advising and smart agriculture. This is an example of technology improving and promoting permaculture on an industrial level.
