Abstract
This research explores the application of machine learning techniques to predict rice production in Sumatra Island using Linear Regression and compares it with five other algorithms: Random Forest Regression, Gradient Boosting, SVR, K-Nearest Neighbors Regression and Decision Tree Regression. After comparing the various models, the linear regression technique has the greatest R2-score (85.53%), demonstrating that it adequately explains the variation in the data. In comparison to some of the other algorithms examined, it has a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) value of 221938.68 and a Mean Squared Error (MSE) value of 176940698374.90, showing that Linear Regression tends to produce more precise predictions that are nearer to the true value. Therefore, this algorithm is considered the best choice for predicting agricultural production in Sumatra, in accordance with the research objectives. These findings highlight the potential of machine learning in improving rice production prediction models for agricultural planning and decision-making in the region.
