Abstract
Systems, computer program products and/or computer-implemented methods described herein relate to balancing agriculture risk with green energy practices to reduce a carbon footprint. A system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components. The computer executable components comprise an analysis component that determines crop metrics and terrace metrics for a terrace slope farming system by employing imaging data, a prediction component that generates, based on the crop metrics and terrace metrics, a crop-terrace pairing for a terrace of the terrace slope farming system, wherein the crop-terrace pairing is defined by one or more of the crop metrics that match to one or more of the terrace metrics, and an evaluation component that identifies the crop-terrace pairing as resulting in a first carbon footprint that is lower than a second carbon footprint that is identified for the same terrace.
