Abstract

Farming automation requires a whole lot of new skills and use of technology for achieving a substantial increase in the crop yield. Smart farming enables the use of technology in tracking, monitoring, and analyzing various farming operations. Internet of things (IoT) platform is formed with sensors and actuators, cameras and drones, telecommunication technologies, edge devices, cloud servers, and specialized hardware and software. This chapter will discuss the available hardware and software technology elements that can be used in farm automation. The chapter is comprised of four sections. The first section provides an overview of precision agriculture and smart farming. The second section provides the literature review of existing research. The third section describes IoT techniques, sensors, and cloud and edge computing solutions for the implementation of smart farming. The fourth section provides a few case studies of the application of IoT in smart farming. Specifically, the chapter will describe the IoT platform solution for complete farm automation.
