In the agricultural domain, the advent of IoT has paved the path for innovative research. Being promising yet at a budding stage, IoT must be extensively experimented upon to be applied widely in different agricultural applications. The rising demand for food has enhanced the necessity of industrialized progression and thorough production techniques in agricultural science. At the vanguard of the innovative farming age, an evolving internet of things (IoT) puts forward many innovative solutions. The agricultural parameters, such as environmental factors, soil conditions, etc., are traced in smart or precision agriculture to upsurge crop harvests, reduce costs, and sustain inputs for the process. Flourishing IoT technologies present several novel solutions and enhance growth prospects in the agricultural sector. To address the IoT's potential usage in the current scenario, this chapter looks at design principles, architectures, numerous challenges, and developments associated with smart agriculture. Also, a review of different perspectives on applications of IoT is conducted. |
