Abstract

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, its applications in education are deepening, creating new opportunities for reforming and innovating traditional agricultural courses. This paper examines the significance of AI-enhancing agricultural education, analyzes existing challenges in integrating AI with agricultural curricula, and proposes implementation pathways and optimization strategies through concrete teaching practice cases. The aim is to improve teaching quality in agricultural courses and explore pathways for cultivating high-caliber professionals who meet the demands of smart agriculture development.
