Urbanization is expected to hold about 50% of the world population by 2050 and there will be stress on available resources including food and freshwater. Further, inefficient utilization of irrigation water possesses additional challenges and it is predicted that by 2050, India will face shortage of freshwater resources. Urban agriculture and Precision Agriculture are the possible solutions in smart cities for the predicted challenges providing food security and safety, sustainable life in cities. Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine Learning (ML) are the possible solutions to smart cities' farming. Agricultural activities such as irrigation of plants, rain and drought conditions monitoring supported by IoT and ML succour farmers to righteous decision on agriculture activities. A detailed study is carried out on the role, opportunities, and different aspects of smart cities, urban farming, communication technologies, IoT and ML with respect to agriculture. The article presents the design of intelligent irrigation system based on soil and weather conditions. The soil and weather parameters are selected through various research articles in Agriculture 4.0 and ML. The article also juxtapositions the designed weather station with the various patents developed. The system developed in this article provides a cost‐effective and state‐of‐the‐art solution to local weather monitoring.

Urban farming is an increasingly popular trend in agricultural activities. Urban farming is an attempt to achieve urban sustainability from an environmental, social and economic perspective. In order to understand the phenomenon of urban farming in society, one of the media used is a news portal. This research aims to gain an in-depth understanding of community perceptions, social networks and issues related to the urban farming phenomenon. Data was collected using the web-scraping method on three national news portals in Indonesia. Data analysis was carried out using sentiment analysis, NER, topic modelling and social network analysis methods. Sentiment analysis shows that there is a generally positive sentiment towards urban farming. Government officials and environmental activists are frequently mentioned as supporting and promoting urban agriculture. Social network analysis reveals interactions between government agencies, non-governmental organisations and the media. The relationships between these stakeholders form a network that plays a role in building awareness, cooperation and knowledge exchange to strengthen food security through urban agriculture.

“…The idea of designing a landscape in Al-Ahsa Governorate by applying artwork from recycled waste materials is aimed not only to increase societal awareness of the value of sustainability in landscape architecture [6], but also to educate and adapt society via artistic creativity about the sustainability awareness [13]. Additionally, this approach will preserve natural resources rather than destroying the ecosystem structure, and raise societal awareness of the importance of landscapes [14].…”

When we think about sustainability, the most common understanding relates to the environment, economy, and social issues. Environmental art is increasingly becoming a medium to address environmental challenges that offer many opportunities when included in the work of sustainable development. The research methodology explores the relevance of art and design projects using recycled or waste materials in landscape park architecture for sustainability, helping to preserve natural resources and protect the environment. Additionally, designing a landscape park in Al-Ahsa Governorate using recycled waste materials will educate society about sustainability via artistic creativity. The applied side, designing a group of artworks, was completed using computer graphic programs and AI systems to improve the visual landscape’s architectural aesthetics through sculpture parks, public sets, etc. The result provides evidence that parks in Al-Ahsa lack artwork, color, and the application of recycled materials in landscape facilities which make a negative contribution to the quality of life of society. Using recycled and waste materials in artwork will contribute to a healthy ecological system and preserve natural resources. Urban landscape designers should consider the addition of parks, land formation, growing plants, artwork, and cheerfully colored furniture with other landscape architecture facilities, which will improve people’s moods and the appearance of cities.
