Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the basis of smart agriculture technology since it connects all aspects of intelligent systems in other industries and agricultural applications. The current farming methods are sufficient to supply adequate food in the future due to the fast-expanding global population. Smart farming aims to increase farm output and efficiency by leveraging state-of-the-art information technologies. The present study of IoT in agriculture was discussed in this review paper by studying significant literature, new techniques, protocols, challenges, issues, and potential paths for IoT-based smart farming. The soil-free technique connected to the hydroponic and aeroponic methods, known as soilless cultivation, is an alternative technology that can adapt well to such circumstances. The aeroponics method offers more advantages regarding faster plant development, increased productivity, and better nutrient absorption. Moreover, several methods and their measures used in aeroponics system using IoT devices were discussed.
期刊介绍:
Computer Science Review, a publication dedicated to research surveys and expository overviews of open problems in computer science, targets a broad audience within the field seeking comprehensive insights into the latest developments. The journal welcomes articles from various fields as long as their content impacts the advancement of computer science. In particular, articles that review the application of well-known Computer Science methods to other areas are in scope only if these articles advance the fundamental understanding of those methods.
