Abstract
The growing population of the world has pressurized today’s agriculture sector for more production with less available resources. The advancement in technology paved the path for the induction of new techniques replacing the age-old traditional methods in the agriculture sector. The internet of things (IoT) along with its components like wireless sensor network, big data analytics and cloud computing have contributed in transforming the traditional agriculture to smart precision agriculture. In smart precision agriculture methods, we are monitoring the field parameters like soil moisture, temperature, humidity, pH level etc. via different sensors available in real-time condition and supplying the optimum resource required to the field. This method avoids excessive use of resources and increases the production as well. This data generated can be stored in the cloud and future decision can be taken based on the analytic results. So, IoT can enable us to guide in smart farming in a way to save resource, optimum resource utilization, increase production, real-time monitoring, future decision and many ore
