Abstract: ABSTRACT TITLE: INTELLIGENT CROP HEALTH MONITORING SYSTEM USING MULTIMODAL SENSOR FUSION The present invention relates to an intelligent crop health monitoring system (100) and method (200) using multimodal sensor fusion for real-time assessment of crop health conditions. A multimodal sensor array module (110) comprising spectral imaging (112), soil parameter (114), microclimate (116) and acoustic emission (118) sensor units captures heterogeneous field data. An edge data acquisition and preprocessing module (120) conditions and synchronizes the signals. A multimodal sensor fusion engine (130) with a feature extraction unit (132), a cross-modal alignment unit (134) and an attention-based fusion unit (136) integrates the modalities into a fused feature vector through multi- head cross-attention. A crop health assessment engine (140) comprising disease detection (142), nutrient deficiency (144) and water stress (146) sub-models produce per-zone differential health scores fused at a health scoring unit (148). A predictive analytics module (150) forecasts health trajectories and generates early warning alerts. A decision support module (160) delivers actionable treatment recommendations. [Figure 1]
