Abstract

Abstract: Agriculture is becoming an important growing sector throughout the world due to increasing population. Major challenge in agriculture sector is to improve farm productivity and quality of farming without continuous manual monitoring to meet the rapidly growing demand for food. Apart from increasing population, the climate change is also a big concern in agricultural sector. The purpose of this research work is to purpose a smart farming method based on internet of things (IOT) to deal with the adverse situations. The smart farming can be adopted which offer high precision crop control, collection of useful data and automated farming technique. This works presents a smart agriculture system which monitors soil humidity and temperature. After processing the sensed data, it takes necessary action based on these values without human intervention. In IOT-based smart agriculture, a system is built for monitoring the crop field with the help of sensors (light, humidity, temperature, soil moisture, etc) and automating the irrigation system. IOT (internet of things) in an agricultural context refers to the use of sensors, cameras, and temperature and moisture of the soil measured and these sensed values are stored in things speak cloud for future data analysis.
