Abstract
The sustainability of our future depends on how we produce food and the impact it has on our environment. Smart farming is a revolution in food production through which farmers are able to use technology to generate bigger harvest yields from existing resources. In addition, the creation of smarter irrigation systems, optimized soil composition and smart monitoring systems are leading to agriculture that takes place at a smaller footprint with lower environmental impact. Smart farming is a huge challenge as 70% of the world's population will live in cities by 2050 or later, making it increasingly difficult for farmers to source their crops. In recent times, agriculture is integrated with state of the art technology such as Cloud computing, Internet of Things, RFID, WSNs, data mining etc. for yield improvement with climate conscious approach leading to sustainability of the system. This paper discusses the various trends in smart and sustainable agriculture.
