A Modern Approach to Agriculture: Survey of Agricultural IoT

The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technology in agriculture is a step towards smart farming practices that improve productivity and efficiency. Based on a field report, this paper analyzes various aspects of the implementation of IoT in agriculture, such as smart irrigation systems, soil chemistry monitoring, crop protection, livestock tracking, and advanced predictive analytics and pest control. IoT applications enable precise resource management, reduce waste, and optimize crop yields. This paper also discusses the environmental impact of the use of IoT in agriculture. It shows that while initial costs and technical complexity are barriers, long-term benefits clearly outweigh these challenges.
