In recent years, the advent of biosensors and bioelectronics has facilitated the swift and precise detection of numerous biomolecules or pathogens in animal samples, aquatic habitats, and plants. These technologies have emerged as potent assets for the agriculture and aquaculture industries. Many experts have raised the question; how might the integration of biosensors into portable devices or automated monitoring systems enable on-site and real-time detection of diverse biomolecules or pathogens? Agriculture and Aquaculture Applications of Biosensors and Bioelectronics presents the recent developments in biological recognition elements, transducer materials, and signal processing techniques for biosensors and bioelectronics used in agriculture and aquaculture applications. Sophisticated biosensors and bioelectronics operate through the immobilization of biological recognition components-such as enzymes or antibodies-on a transducer surface. This immobilization process allows for the targeted recognition and binding of biomolecules or pathogens. The resulting electrical, optical, or chemical changes triggered by the recognition event are quantifiable through various methods and are often enhanced by applications utilizing artificial intelligence (AI). The necessity for high sensitivity and selectivity, the optimization of biocompatibility and stability, and the integration of biosensors with AI-aided solutions are just some of the challenges and opportunities in developing biosensors for high-tech agriculture and aquaculture. This book focuses on the principles, technologies, applications, opportunities, and challenges of sensors, biosensors, and bioelectronics for agriculture and aquaculture sectors. This book is an excellent resource for the integration of sensors, biosensors, IoT technologies, and drones for overall concepts, principles, models, designs, innovations, developments, and implementation of applications in the high-tech agriculture and farming ecosystem. Agriculture and Aquaculture Applications of Biosensors and Bioelectronics targets a mixed audience of biotechnology engineers, biosensors scientists, bioelectronics researchers, high-tech agriculture analysts, Ph.D. scholars, researchers, academics, professionals, engineers, and students from different communities around the world to share and contribute concepts, methodologies, technologies, approaches, models, frameworks, applications and techniques to resolve the challenging issues associated with the leveraging of the principles and applications of biotechnologies and biosensors with the main areas of artificial intelligence and unmanned aerial vehicle sciences for modeling approaches, simulating molecules of plants, monitoring plants, controlling environment, developing applications, managing supply chain of agriculture and aquaculture in the era of digital transformation revolution.
