  ABSTRACT: This research focuses on the contribution of Artificial Intelligence to market gardening in Burkina Faso using drones for crop monitoring, disease detection, and targeted spraying, as well as forecasting systems for optimizing irrigation and planting schedules. Artificial Intelligence is applied in several areas of life and market gardening is no exception. The objective of this study is to show that AI could have a positive impact on the production of market gardening in Burkina Faso. This study is important and new because AI is little known by many market gardening professionals. In this study, we collect primary data through market gardening professionals. We analyze and compare those who use AI and those who do not use it in the context of their work and we identify the impact of new technologies such as AI in market gardening. The comparative result shows an increase of production for those who use such technology under the same condition of production. The expected result is to demonstrate the impacts in terms of profitability in the use of AI and to encourage professionals in the field to become active in its use.
