Blockchain‐Empowered H‐CPS Architecture for Smart Agriculture (Adv. Sci. 27/2025)

Smart Agriculture This cover image depicts a smart agriculture scenario empowered by artificial intelligence and blockchain technology. The background showcases digitized agricultural field information flows, which are transmitted via blockchain technology and visualized through a virtual reality display. Intelligent robots conduct in-depth analysis and processing of these data streams. In article number 2503102, Ming Luo, Youxiong Que, and co-workers propose a H-CPS framework that uses blockchain and AI to analyze agricultural data, solving irrigation optimization, crop breeding efficiency, and supply chain transparency issues, enhancing sustainability and global food security.
