Role of the Internet of Things (IoT) in agriculture

IoT collects and synchronizes data, giving control over the farmland, its production, cost of production, etc. Hardware collects data and information while software that processes the data.

It simplifies the data processing, and the information received is thus utilized to run computer-controlled machines like drones, autonomous robots, etc.

It gives more control over the constraints that were previously not known or were in control. This gives increased production of crops.

The advantages are:

• Enhanced productivity
• Better operational efficiency
• Cost-effective operation
   

IoT helps make more informed decisions. Thus you can make precise decisions for your crops. Also, an algorithm-based forecast helps to prevent future hazards.
