Smart Agriculture Using Internet of Things Technology to Improve Agricultural Productivity

Abstract

Sophisticated technology in the internet of things began to play a different role in facilitating
human life. At this time, the concept of a smart city has emerged that can encourage people in urban areas
who utilize the internet of things technology such as traffic management, energy utilization, and city
administration services. The use of the internet of things such as sensor technology can help the lives of
rural communities today, primarily to facilitate agricultural activities. This paper provides solutions to
problems in agriculture, such as weather disturbances, soil conditions, and temperatures that are less than
ideal for plant growth by utilizing the internet of things technology to increase the productivity of
agricultural activities. The proposed system design uses a micr
ocontroller to read data, software to retrieve data from sensors, and mobile software so that it can be used by
farmers anywhere with a minimum cost.
