This study compares various wrapper feature selection methods for crop prediction and demonstrates that the Recursive Feature Elimination technique with the Adaptive Bagging classifier outperforms others.
Earlier, crop cultivation was undertaken on the basis of farmers' hands-on expertise. However, climate change has begun to affect crop yields badly. Consequently, farmers are unable to choose the right crop/s based on soil and environmental factors, and the process of manually predicting the choice of the right crop/s of land has, more often than not, resulted in failure. Accurate crop prediction results in increased crop production. This is where machine learning playing a crucial role in the area of crop prediction. Crop prediction depends on the soil, geographic and climatic attributes. Selecting appropriate attributes for the right crop/s is an intrinsic part of the prediction undertaken by feature selection techniques. In this work, a comparative study of various wrapper feature selection methods are carried out for crop prediction using classification techniques that suggest the suitable crop/s for land. The experimental results show the Recursive Feature Elimination technique with the Adaptive Bagging classifier outperforms the others.
