Progressive Generalization Augmentation with Deeply Coupled RND-PPO and Domain-Prioritized Noise Injection for Robust Crop Management Reinforcement Learning

Our preliminary experiments on gym-DSSAT maize irrigation tasks revealed that +/-2 degrees C temperature noise causes an 11.9% reduction in economic returns for PPO policies trained under clean conditions - a systematic robustness deficit that existing research has not adequately addressed. This paper tackles three interconnected limitations impeding practical deployment of agricultural RL systems: the trade-off between early-stage learning efficiency and late-stage generalization capability; the naive additive combination of intrinsic and extrinsic rewards in exploration-augmented PPO; and uniform measurement noise injection strategies that disregard empirically validated differential sensitivity across agricultural state variables. We introduce three systematic innovations: Progressive Generalization Augmentation (PGA) implementing a three-phase curriculum (clean training 0-800 episodes, progressive 800-1200, full augmentation 1200-2000); a deeply coupled RND-PPO architecture with dual-channel GAE normalization, progress-decayed intrinsic coefficients, and semantic discretization; and domain-prioritized noise injection with hierarchical activation. Our experimental evaluation demonstrates: 8.43% yield improvement and 16.42% nitrogen use efficiency improvement over SOTA BERT-DQN in Florida; 5.61% yield improvement in Zaragoza (though 3.67% lower economic score due to challenging Mediterranean climate); and 94.4% vs 80.0% performance retention under combined perturbations. All experiments used 5 random seeds on NVIDIA A100 GPUs with 4.2+/-0.3 hours per run (2000 episodes, 2048-step buffer, 64 mini-batch size).
