Fine-Tuning General-Purpose Large Language Models for Agricultural Applications:A Reproducible Framework and Evaluation Protocol Based on Qwen3-8B

arXiv:2606.28992v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: General-purpose large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong abilities in opendomain question answering, information extraction, and text generation. Agricultural applications, however, are domain-specific, region-dependent, time-sensitive, and safety-critical. Without data governance, expert evaluation, and evidence constraints, an agricultural assistant mayproduce unreliable advice on crop diseases, pesticide use, fertilization, or polic...
