About

Ranusha Nethmi is an emerging researcher at the intersection of artificial intelligence, precision agriculture, and robotics. Her work focuses on developing intelligent systems to enhance greenhouse farming—a critical area for sustainable food production in challenging climates. Nethmi’s major contributions include the design of an AI-based greenhouse farming support system that integrates robotic monitoring to optimize crop growth under controlled conditions. She further advanced this field by creating an intelligent disease detection system for greenhouses, addressing the pressing issue of yield loss due to plant diseases. Her robotic monitoring approach enables real-time surveillance and early intervention, reducing the need for manual inspection. With her two most-cited papers accumulating 13 and 11 citations respectively, Nethmi’s research is gaining traction among agricultural technologists and AI practitioners. Her work stands out for its practical application of machine learning and robotics to solve real-world agricultural challenges, making her a promising voice in the movement toward data-driven, automated farming solutions.
