IoT Based Smart Agricultural System for Efficient Crop Growth

Abstract

Population growth has made agriculture the most important growth sector in the world. The challenge in the agricultural industry right now is to improve the efficiency and quality of agriculture without regular physical monitoring to meet the rapidly increasing food demand. Along with population growth, climatic condition is also a major challenge in agriculture. The purpose of this study is to propose an internet-based smart agricultural model of things that uses clustering to deal with adverse conditions. This model uses different types of sensors for different purposes, such as soil moisture, barometric pressure, rainfall detection, and humidity sensors. The data is collected in the cloud and calculated automatically. Intelligent agriculture is automatically taken over by plant management, useful data collection and analysis. The purpose of this white paper is to implement the Internet of Things (IoT) to monitor humidity, soil conditions, temperature and field water supply, water levels, and climatic conditions. The IoT-based smart farming system envisioned in this report is integrated with a variety of sensors and a Wi-Fi module that produces live data feeds that can be accessed online.
