Intelligent Agriculture Using Machine Learning and Internet of Things

The paper highlights the application of smart farming in the agricultural sector, leveraging the capabilities of machine learning (ML) and the Internet of Things (IoT). The paper proposes the use of ML and computer vision techniques to classify different sets of crop photographs. This technology aids in monitoring crop quality and evaluating yield by analyzing metrics such as crop health, disease detection, and growth patterns. The main challenges faced by the agricultural sector include identifying leaf diseases in affected areas and rapidly improving both crop output and quality. The IoT plays a crucial role in modernizing agriculture by providing farmers with a diverse range of technological tools for gathering information on external factors that impact crop growth, such as weather conditions, soil fertility, moisture levels, and temperature. Additionally, automated systems incorporating microcontrollers and wireless sensor networks are employed to monitor and control agricultural processes, optimizing efficiency and reducing manual labor. The paper emphasizes the potential of ML, computer vision, and IoT technologies in smart farming to address agricultural challenges, increase productivity, and optimize crop management practices. By leveraging these advancements, farmers can make data-driven decisions and improve the quality and quantity of their agricultural output.
