Abstract

The agricultural industry has been transformed by the Internet of Things (IoT) revolution, which has brought about cutting-edge solutions to problems relating to crop monitoring and management. This article provides a thorough analysis of a smart agricultural IoT system created for effective crop monitoring of crop moisture and temperature. The objective of this research is to create a comprehensive system that can continuously track temperature and moisture levels in agricultural fields, giving farmers useful information for smarter crop management decisions. To continually monitor and analyse important environmental parameters impacting crop growth, the created system incorporates several IoT components, such as wireless sensors, actuators, and cloud-based data analytics. Temperature and moisture are the two main factors that determine the health, yield, and general quality of the crop. Real-time temperature and moisture data are gathered from various points inside the agricultural field by the use of wireless sensors. The information is subsequently processed and interpreted by sophisticated data analytics algorithms on a cloud-based platform. According to the study, the IoT-based system effectively regulated environmental temperature, resulting in an average decrease to 26.2°C, while concurrently maintaining or improving soil moisture content, evidenced by an increase to 45%. Farmers with this guidance can therefore improve their decision-making processes and ultimately increase agricultural yield, sustainability, and economic consequences by utilising IoT capabilities. Further research and development in this area could revolutionized global agriculture and help ensure food security in the face of shifting climatic circumstances and rising population demands as IoT continues to develop.
