The world has prioritized sustainability to protect the planet for future generations.
Agriculture is one area where there are numerous use cases for the application of technology to promote sustainability, while at the same time production must be increased to supply the growing population with increasingly scarce resources.
On farms, The Internet of Things (IoT) devices can remotely measure all types of data and relay this information to the farmer in real time. IoT devices can collect information about soil moisture, chemical use, dam levels, and livestock health, as well as monitor fences, vehicles, and weather. Smart farming based on IoT technologies allows farmers to reduce waste and increase productivity – from the amount of fertilizer used to the number of trips made by farm vehicles – and enables efficient use of resources such as water, electricity, etc.
