A comparison of five models—Gaussian Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Decision Trees, Random Forests, and DNN—was conducted using a comprehensive agricultural dataset. The results revealed that while all models had strengths, the DNN outperformed the others, achieving an accuracy of 97.98% in training and 97.95% in validation, with near-perfect precision, recall, and F1 scores. The DNN’s performance, despite its interpretability challenges, underscores its potential in accurately predicting crops from complex, high-dimensional data, crucial for Bangladesh’s varied cropping patterns. This research emphasizes the need for robust agricultural data and suggests that DNNs could significantly improve crop planning, management, and food security, contributing to a sustainable future for precision agriculture in Bangladesh.
