Precision irrigation and fertilization in agriculture are vital for sustainable crop production, relying on accurate determination of the crop’s nutritional status. However, there are challenges in optimizing traditional neural networks to achieve this accurately. This paper aims to propose a rapid identification method for crop water and nitrogen content using optimized neural networks. This method addresses the difficulty in optimizing the traditional backpropagation neural network (BPNN) structure. It uses 179 multi−spectral images of crops (such as maize) as samples for the neural network model. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is applied to optimize the hidden layer nodes. Additionally, this paper proposes a double−hidden−layer network structure to improve the model’s prediction accuracy. The proposed double−hidden−layer PSO−BPNN model showed a 9.87% improvement in prediction accuracy compared with the traditional BPNN model. The correlation coefficient R<sup>2</sup> for predicted crop nitrogen and water content was 0.9045 and 0.8734, respectively. The experimental results demonstrate high training efficiency and accuracy. This method lays a strong foundation for developing precision irrigation and fertilization plans for modern agriculture and holds promising prospects.
