Abstract

The advent of precision agriculture has revolutionized the agricultural sector, emphasizing the utilization of data-driven strategies for decision-making and the optimization of resources. Sensors, encompassing soil, crop, weather, and drone sensors, offer real-time data to facilitate informed decision-making and enhance agricultural outcomes. These sensors facilitate the optimization of irrigation and fertilization and the timely identification of soil-related problems. In addition, they contribute to the surveillance of plant health, the detection of weed infestations, and the monitoring of meteorological conditions. The gathering and management of data play a crucial role in precision agriculture. The advantages encompass decreased utilization of resources, heightened agricultural productivity, a diminished ecological footprint, and better economic viability. Nevertheless, persistent obstacles like technological problems, concerns around data security, and the imperative for advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning persist.
