Global economic stability and food security depend heavily on agricultural productivity. Farmers frequently struggle to choose the best crop to grow, given the soil’s composition and environmental factors. To overcome these obstacles, this paper offers a thorough machine-learning-based crop recommendation system that makes precise, data-driven crop recommendations. The system uses machine learning algorithms like Random Forest, Decision Tree, and K-Nearest Neighbors to anticipate the ideal crop by combining environmental factors, including soil nutrients, temperature, humidity, pH, and rainfall. By using a content-based recommendation system, the system ensures that recommendations are customized to particular soil properties and environmental circumstances. This study examines the system’s creation, application, and assessment, showcasing how well it works to address practical agricultural problems like yield maximization, resource optimization, and sustainable farming. The Random Forest algorithm outperformed the others with an accuracy of 99.54%, demonstrating the high accuracy of the suggested model.
