Agriculture has historically been vital for food, fiber, and energy, and its development can be accelerated by adopting Internet of Things technologies. The paper presents a connected farm built on IoT to deliver smart farming solutions to end users. The authors detail the design and implementation of the connected farm and demonstrate its advantages through service scenarios versus earlier smart farms. The work illustrates IoT’s disruptive power across multiple industries, notably agriculture.
Agriculture has been one of the most important industries in human history since it provides humans with absolutely indispensable resources such as food, fiber, and energy. The agriculture industry could be further developed by employing new technologies, in particular, the Internet of Things (IoT). In this paper, we present a connected farm based on IoT systems, which aims to provide smart farming systems for end users. A detailed design and implementation for connected farms are illustrated, and its advantages are explained with service scenarios compared to previous smart farms. We hope this work will show the power of IoT as a disruptive technology helping across multi industries including agriculture.
