    Agricultural IoT is necessary to meet the increasing global food demand by 2050. IoT allows for precision farming through sensors that collect data on soil, crops, livestock and weather. This data is stored in the cloud and accessed by farmers on their phones. It benefits farmers by optimizing inputs, monitoring crops, planning activities and saving costs. While IoT has applications in precision farming, greenhouses, drones and more, challenges include the upfront costs and need for better internet access.

    Why Agricultural iot :
    The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
    (FAO) predicted that the global population will likely reach 9.8
    billion people by 2050 ( SOFA, 2017: xii). In order to feed the
    world, food production must increase by 70% by 2050.

    For that , the agriculture industry needs to embrace IoT. The


    demand for more food has to meet overcoming challenges such as,
    rising climate change, extreme weather conditions and
    environmental impact that results from intensive farming
    practices.

    There is a growing realization that using the Internet of things (IoT),


    big data and expert system will usher in precision farming which
    will lead the ‘agriculture 2.0’ (WorldBank, 2017) ; and the
    Internet of things (IoT) will be key to agricultural production.
    Architecture :
    In agriculture loT applications include farm
    vehicle tracking, livestock monitoring,
    storage monitoring and other farm
    operations.

    In this loT model, sensors can be deployed


    in the farm – to the ground, in water, in
    vehicles etc. to collect data. The collected
    data is stored in the cloud system or
    server and accessed by the farmer via the
    internet or their mobile phones.

    loT has been applied in agriculture in


    general, in arable farming, in fisheries and
    aquaculture, in animal food consumption,
    in agri-food supply chain, in green house
    horticulture and livestock farming.
    THE PROCESSES INVOLVED ARE :
    Benefits of loT
    to agriculture :
    The benefits that farmers get from
    applying loT is two pronged; firstly
    farmers can optimize the use of inputs
    and also farmers can decrease
    production costs. Furthermore, the
    other benefits were
    also itemized below:-

    •Saves cost by effectively using inputs

    •Better monitoring of crops and


    avoiding crop losses through disease or
    adverse weather

    •Help in optimizing water use

    •Better planning of farm activities


    Applications of IoT in Agriculture

    • Precision Farming
    • Smart Greenhouses
    • Livestock Monitoring
    • Agricultural Drones
    COMPANIES :
    • OnFarm - Fresno USA
    OnFarm offers a cloud platform service for the agriculture market.
    • Lely - Maassluis Netherlands
    Lely develops automated systems for the dairy industry.
    • Farmobile - Leawood United States
    Farmobile develops smart farming monitoring solution.
    • CropX - Tel Aviv Israel
    CropX is offers an agriculture analytics solution.
    IoT in Agriculture: Market Outlook &
    Scope :
    The commercial agriculture industry is rapidly becoming one of the most IoT
    data-driven markets. With the emergence of M2M, IoT, and advanced data
    analytics technologies, data is becoming available that was previously
    uncollectible.
    The application of various AgriTech analytics tools and methodologies, such as
    predictive analytics will provide substantial enhancements to agriculture
    operations.
    Virtually every aspect of agriculture that can be automated, digitally planned,
    and managed will benefit from IoT technologies and solutions.
    Accordingly, IoTAg will change the way agricultural operations and farms are
    managed, which will bring various benefits to farming, including enhanced
    crop quality and quantity; improved use of resources and farm equipment;
    real-time monitoring of farms, animals, and machines; and automated
    irrigation systems, fertilizer spraying, and pest control.
    CHALLENGES :
    The challenges of loT in
    agriculture are the cost
    of equipment and the
    need for wider internet
    coverage. These two
    prerequisites
    eliminated many
    farmers in the
    developing countries to
    enjoy this technology.
