Abstract
In Africa, about 300 million people are undernourished, and there is mounting evidence linking food insecurity to rapid population growth. Profitable production of crops and animals in large quantity is hinged on improved practices using modern tools: internet of things (IoT). The internet of things has the purpose of providing ICT infrastructure facilitating the exchange of ‘things' in a secure and reliable manner. Its function is to overcome the gap between objects in the physical world and their representation in information systems. Agribusiness empowered by IoT has opportunities in crop and animal health assessment and monitoring. They include agricultural drone services, crop and livestock production and management, digital information platforms, online sales and purchase of agricultural products (e-commerce), export and marketing of farm produce or processed products. In conclusion, young people will be gainfully engaged if they can be provided the Internet of Things enabled agribusiness.
