Abstract

Internet of Things technology plays a significant role in agriculture industry. The recent statistics shows that the world population is on the point of reach over 9 billion in the year 2050. The agriculture industry needs to adopt the smart technology to feed this large population. The agriculture Industry depends on innovative ideas to manage growing demand for food. The agriculture operations need smart solutions from IoT by introducing satellite connectivity and expending cellular networks. The entire Agriculture system is improved using IoT based Smart Farming monitoring the field in real-time. Sensors and interconnectivity helps the Internet of Things in Agriculture has not only saved the time of the farmers but has also reduced the extravagant use of resources such as Water and Electricity.
