In the modern era technology has an important role in farming when farming goes to the next level and no connection to 5G connection has been take place. Now innovative advancement in the area of farming has been taken place and it helps to grow the business. So let’s understand how the IoT helps farming in morden world.
Introduction
When we think about IoT it mainly refers to the network of interconnection devices and easily communicates the data between devices and the internet. IoT refers to agriculture machinery and pipe sensors, agriculture drones, smart irrigation systems, and AI intrigrate machinery which helps farmers to reduce their time for farming and increase efficiency, improving the performance.
IoT is a very important role in monitoring and managing farming at the very micro level by ensuring all the aspects of agriculture like the amount of water level that has been utilized in the farm, the amount of nutrients that are used for growing crops, and other areas like protection of crops. This will help us to reduce waste, and give maximum benefits from agreeculture products.
We can also monitor the level of moisture so that a farmer can choose the type of crops according to that and we can adjust the level but changing the flow of the water supply, the sensors can also monitor the temperature level in the soil and the amount of nutrient content into the soil. By analyzing that information a farmers can get an idea of the best time and the level of fertilizer requirements into the soil. This helps to reduce the waste of water, save the crops, and also helps to environment by reducing over-fertilization.
The farmers can introduce the best Irrigation Systems that can manage the water level and fertilization process.
When we talk about the Internet of Things then how can we forget that it can also help us to forecast the weather by providing accurate data so by analyzing that amount of information farmers can forecast the best time for planting and harvesting the crops, He/She can decide when to apply pesticides. Knowing what weather conditions in the future can reduce crop loss.
IoT can also help the farmer to manage their stocks of crop farming, fertilizer, and its needs in the future. It checks the health of animals timely updates farmer about their pets and improves productivity. Farmers can check some of the rare illnesses in the animals and can cure timely. The IoT also works like a human ware IoT helps the farmer dispense the feed from the animal. As a machine, it can take feed by analyzing the animal’s condition.
Problems and Solutions
Its the modern world but still many villages do not have proper connectivity or low connectivity. This creates a gap in implementing the proper system so the network connections need to improve. with the increase in the amount of IoT devices data security is a major problem to the farmers. the government also has to take part in this and create proper encrypted communication, secure passwords, and regular software updates.
Conclusion
IoT has lots of capacity to revoulate modern farming improve efficiency, and productivity and create sustainability. So we need to improve proper connectivity for implementation of IoT.
