An Investigation on Smart Crop Protection System Utilizing Internet of Things

Agriculture is the foundation of Indian society and provides over 20% of the country’s economic output. But currently, farmers are having various issues in agriculture and the outcomes are dropping year by year. The goal of this research is to examine the effects of better agricultural techniques on agricultural production and protection. The key difficulty is protecting crops from harm due to crop diseases, an endless supply of water, pests and animal attacks. By considering the aforesaid challenges experienced by the farmers, a system is proposed for monitoring the conditions such as weather, soil, and crop protection. This approach provides the essential measures to be taken for improved crop production by supplying the images of the plants. Any animal attacks, diseases, and pests can be seen in the image of the plants. And also, it notifies the producers by delivering alerts from buzzers. This strategy offers the producer an incentive to encourage better crop yield. It also describes the functioning of machine-learning and artificial intelligence using IoT in crop-protection systems. Different sorts of sensors are employed to notify their distinct movements.
