Abstract

Smart agriculture is one of the Internet of Things' most important uses. Water, fertilizer, and crop yield waste are all reduced via smart agriculture. The manual detection of specifications like temperature, moisture, and humidity in the existing agricultural system drives up labor costs, and continuous monitoring is not possible. The irrigation procedure is carried out automatically in this study utilizing various sensors, which reduces manual work. It is suggested to utilize a sensor-based monitoring system for crop fields. It would entail gathering information on the soil moisture, humidity, and temperature. Automation of irrigation is possible by keeping an eye on all these variables. Unquestionably, smart farming is a key facilitator in providing more food with less resources for a growing global population. While this is essential to feeding the world's expanding population responsibly, smart farming also offers producers and communities throughout the world additional advantages. Farmers may raise yields and improve environmental management by using these strategies. By monitoring the field, IoT-based smart agriculture enhances the overall farming system. The Internet of Things in agriculture helps farmers save time and lessen the usage of resources like water thanks to sensors and connections. electricity, internet-connected temperature monitoring.
