A Review of IoT based Smart Farm Monitoring

It is an application combined with hardware in which a farmer can monitor and control certain parameters of field and do real time monitoring. This paper confers a study of weather station and mobile data logging type monitoring. A short deliberation on Smart IoT based farm monitoring and their interrelationship is presented. In the 1800s, they had grain elevators, mechanized plougher, chemical fertilizers, and primitive gas-powered tractor. Then in the 1900s end, farmers began the use of satellites to plan various tasks in farmland. IoT is about to drive into the future generation of farming to become a successful benchmark. Smart farming in todays time is becoming more promising among the farmers, and technology based farming is swiftly flattering the standard thanks to technological advances in farming in field of automation, ICI (information and communication technology) and robotics. Several applications of IoT are present for use in agriculture and farming purposes. Uses of “Internet of Things farming” will assist the agriculture sector in future to develop and do the production much more efficiently. This paper gives information regarding multimedia devices, communication protocol, sensors and systems, which are largely used to monitor smart farming and specific algorithms used for such purpose. This paper will also help future researchers and provide them guidelines to follow in growing automated Smart IoT based monitoring. To meet the needs of large growing population by year 2050, the productivity needs to be increased by 25%. This goal can be achieved by the efficient use of advancements in robotics and automation.
