Development of IoT for Smart Agriculture a Review

The Internet of Things is the hot point in the Internet field. The concepts help to interconnect physical objects equipped with sensing, actuating, computing power and thus lends them the capability to collaborate on a task in unison remaining connected to the Internet termed as the “Internet of things” IoT. With the help of sensor, actuators and embedded microcontrollers the notion of smart object is realized. Wherein these smart objects collect data from the environment of development, process them, and initiate suitable actions. Thus, the Internet of things will bring hitherto unimaginable benefits and helps humans in leading a smart and luxurious life. Because of the potential applications of IoT (Internet of Things), it has turned out to be a prominent subject of scientific research. The importance and the application of these technologies are in sizzling discussion and research, but on the field of agriculture and forestry, it is quite less. Thus, in this paper, applications of IoT on agriculture and forestry has been studied and analyzed, also this paper concisely introduced the technology IoT, agriculture IoT, list of some potential applications domains where IoT is applicable in the agriculture sector, benefits of IoT in agriculture, and presents a review of some literature.
