Abstract

Technological innovation in farming is nothing new. Handheld tools were the standards hundreds of years ago, and then the Industrial Revolution brought about the cotton gin.
The IoT is set to push the future of farming to the next level. Smart agriculture is already becoming more commonplace among farmers, and high-tech farms are quickly becoming the standard thanks to agricultural drones and sensors.
In this lecture, I will outline and stress on importance of IoT in Agriculture, and how various related technologies are contributing towards precision agriculture. The lecture will also outline various research challenges, issues and future of Agriculture IoT.
