The development of IoT agriculture has seen a rapid increase in recent years as advancements in technology have enabled farmers to monitor and control their equipment remotely. This allows them to take care of their crops from anywhere in the world, making it possible for them to monitor the health and growth rates of their plants in real time.
As IoT technology evolves, automation will play a more important role by, for instance, automatically stopping the watering process once the soil has received a sufficient level of moisture. Furthermore, analysis of irrigation data transmitted to Cloud computing can help ensure that watering occurs at the optimal time (for example, overnight or at cooler times during the day) to minimize evaporation losses.
