Soil temperature plays a key role in crop water requirement and crop yield. The accurate field estimation of soil temperature is difficult and expensive. Therefore the present study focuses on the estimation of soil temperature in Mohanpur using Artificial Neural Network with input weather data such as maximum temperature, minimum temperature, wind speed, sunshine hours and the results shows that a good correlation exists between the maximum and minimum temperature with the soil temperature. The results statistics shows that with all the given input data condition model shows good results (R2 = 0.95, RMSE = 1.54, MAE = 1.21) and also the model behaves well for sparse data condition i.e. only when maximum and minimum temperatures are available results (R2 = 0.91, RMSE = 1.86, MAE = 1.46).
