Internet of Farming (IOF) and Internet of Things (IoT)

Abstract

IoT is revolutionizing the global context on many fronts, including healthcare, e-commerce, transportation, real estate, travel, banking, education, leisure, home automation, and agriculture. Traditional agriculture requires implementing specific tasks, such as planting, fertilizing, harvesting, with a predetermined schedule. With the ever-increasing population, it is not easy to continue on time and quickly as a human being. Introducing IoT in agriculture will be produced in smart outcomes with precision agriculture. This study aims to provide a framework and prototype that include a crop monitoring and response system based on the farmer’s needs. The proposed system has four components: sensors, microcontroller, cloud database, and android application. The sensors monitor the environment and changes in the crop continuously. Also, it reacts when the crops need to have severe actions. When the proposed system and the prototype developed with machine learning techniques, the farmer will get the best throughput.
