Precision Agriculture Monitoring System using Internet of Things (IoT)

Abstract

There are many agriculture applications incorporating IoT to increase the productivity of the crops, however, these applications are still facing many challenges. The researchers are working to defeat these challenges in the futuristic applications by deploying new technologies; these technologies are not easy to be used by farmers. So, this research work aims to build a real-time, cost-effective Precision Agriculture Monitoring System with a user-friendly interface to help the farmers monitor their farm parameter's variation (weather, water, soil, pest detection, intrusion detection, fire detection) periodically from anywhere and at any time using their smart-phones. The proposed system will act as a decision support system helps farmers to take the appropriate actions based on the farm parameter's variation; by sending an alert email to the farmer when it is required.
