scholarly journals Self-Automated Agriculture System using IoT

The world populationsupposed to reach 9.8 billion by 2050 and is difficult of feed such population . So for feeding the entire population the agriculture sector should be embed with IOT and farmers also should adopt this technology [1]. It is essential to increase the productivity of farming and agricultural process with the help of technologies like IoT.IoT can make farming easier by reducing the cost by decreasing the intervention of farmers in this field through automation. This paper aim is to develop a self- autonomous agriculture system works by connecting physical devices and systems to the internet. IoT is a very promising technology to drive the agricultural sector, it is the backbone for sustainable development mainly in developing countriesthat are experiencing rapid population growth like China, India etc, stressed natural resources, agricultural productivity reduction due to climate change. Hence the paper aims at making the agriculture smart using IoT technologies. The projects include a GPS based robot to perform tasks like weeding, spraying, moisture sensing, bird scaring, keeping vigilance, etc. This project requires smart irrigation with smart control and best decision making based on accurate real time data. Thisincludes crop management, waste management, warehouse management, theft control etc. Controlling of all the operations will be through a remote smart device like phone or computer connected to Internet and the operations will be performed by using sensors, Wi-Fi or ZigBee modules, cellular, LoRa,camera and actuators with micro-controller and raspberry pi [2]

<p>COVID-19, a pandemic disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, changed the production schemes and supply chains in all spheres of the world’s economy. The agricultural sector in Mexico was no exception, although it has been so essential during the pandemic that its growth was higher than the other sectors of the Mexican economy and it stood out as a food supplier in the world in 2020. Farmers’ vocations and the integration of productive food chains led to a surplus of 1.2 billion dollars, with an annual increase of 39.92%. The pandemic is a challenge and an opportunity for the Mexican countryside in terms of digital and technological innovation derived from border investigation. However, it is crucial to establish public agricultural planning policies to help optimize this area of opportunity by focusing on new production and national and international trade models, responding efficiently to national visions to benefit  producers-consumers and guaranteeing food security in the framework of the UN’s international policies for sustainable development, the IPCC’s reduction of climate impact and ensuring human health by the WHO.</p>

This research establishes a Big Data-Fair Value Measurement Model of Biological Assets using a Smart Farming Approach. The aim of the study is to gather literature knowledge about the judgment of biological assets. The use of big data and innovative farming in the agricultural sector is relatively new in Malaysia, making people wonder about its effectiveness, whether positive or negative. However, determining fair value can be a daunting task due to the existence of personal biological properties and the variety of specimens (offspring), classes, and conditions. Agricultural sectors need to be more emphasised by many parties as the increases in cost production is not a trivial matter that can be ignored. There have been pressures from foreign countries such as Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia in the agricultural sector. Malaysia faces one major challenge: the cost of production, including wages and inputs, is relatively higher. (Rozhan 2019). Agricultural accounting is a minor standard, but it has a broad scope and a significant impact on agricultural businesses based on the accounting perspective, the MFRS141/IAS 41. The standard improves the transparency of the cost to replace capital (by allowing for depreciation and amortisation) and better reflects the productive lifespan of assets in agricultural operations. However, the application of MFRS 141 Agriculture is still relatively new in Malaysia, and a thorough examination of the literature indicates several gaps and deficiencies. This literature review is vital to support the study on Big Data-Fair Value Measurement Model of Biological Assets as the agricultural sector's involvement was recently popular. It might also offer some good ideas for handling problems involving the fair value measurement. Future studies will help the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industries, agriculture sector workers, in terms of practical perspective. Therefore, the future result of the study suggests an improvement within the agriculture sector related to the treatment in their fair values, issues, and strategies.

The agricultural sector is of great importance to fulfill food resources need of the country. Precision Agriculture (PA) with Internet of Things and Wireless Sensor Network is a transformation from traditional farming to smart farming. Wireless sensor networks and Internet of Things are considered as drivers to develop system which can change agriculture sector from manual to automatic. Advancement in the technology have pushed the growth of precision agriculture to very large extent despite of several challenges faced in this area. System for precision agriculture relies on hardware components mainly wireless sensors which act as a source for gathering of real time data. Depending upon the real time date retrieved by sensors automation in agriculture is done by adopting decision-based system. With Precision agriculture productivity is optimized by maintaining sustaniability as crop receives what is acutual requirement on the basis of new techniques and software platforms. This review article includes Inernet of Things (IoT), Wireless Sensors, Wireless communication and challenges faced in this area.

In this modern world agriculture is one of the major booming sectors around the world. In India around 60 percent of GDP comes from agriculture sector alone. Also, around the world there are many technologies showing up in the field of agriculture. In this paper proposed a technology by means of which potential pest attack in the crops can be detected and the respective pesticide is also sprayed as well. Along with these there is a range of sensor employed in the field connected to the controller that will take the real time values from the field and can be displayed in the respective screen (monitor or mobile screen) by means of technology called IOT (Internet of Things). Raspberry-pi is used as the controller to perform IoT. system is linked with an application called “cain” Which allows us to display various values of sensors in the monitor or in mobile application.

Agriculture is becoming an important growing sector throughout the world due to increasing population. Major challenge in agriculture sector is to improve farm productivity and quality of farming without continuous manual monitoring to meet the rapidly growing demand for food. Apart from increasing population, the climate change is also a big concern in agricultural sector. Thus, rather than performing outdoor irrigation; here a small indoor farming method is performed based on Internet of Things. The smart farming method enables the collection of data and automated farming technique.

Protection of a domestic manufacturing industry to encourage its expansion through import substitution is equivalent (in the absence of equal protection for agriculture) to a “tax” on agriculture to support the development of the industrial sector. To call this policy of biasing the intersectoral terms of trade to favor industry a typical strategy of underdeveloped countries would be, if anything, to understate its universality. The arguments for and against such a strategy are well known, and an approximation of the benefits to the industrial sector can be gleaned from the national accounts of many countries. What remains hidden in the accounts, however, is the cost to the agricultural sector as a result of its being forced to trade at less favorable terms of trade than those provided by the world market. The purpose of this paper is to work out a simple methodology for measuring this cost and then to attempt an estimate of the cost in a particular case.


Internet of Things (IoT) is a most emerging and advanced technology that works on computing and communications. The survival of human beings in the world depends on the agricultural sector. The traditional agriculture methods are to be replaced with smart technologies. In order to minimize the cost, maintenance and monitoring the farms the technologies are used. The smart sensors sense the parameters like temperature, humidity, water level, soil nutrition’s and PH levels are monitored. In this paper IoT methods are used for smart farming

A drone is a fast-growing technology that has been used in many applications in the world. The drone also is a new solution for the transportation process in the agricultural sector. The primary purpose of this project is to explore the potential of drone or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to reduce the dependence on fossil-fueled vehicles to transport the crops within the farm and from the farm to the seller. The use of drones will create lower emission of carbon dioxide and toxic gases that are usually generated by fossil-fueled vehicles. Besides, this research is also essential to reduce the health issues that currently appear from agriculture activities. The objective of this project is to determine the parameters to design a suitable drone for transportation in the agricultural sector. In addition, the design of the drone must be able to carry a maximum of 10 kg of payload, which can be analyzed by simulation and analysis. The simulation and analysis are performed by SolidWorks software. The conceptual design of the drone is proposed by following the George E. Dieter model of the design process. In addition, a simulation on the strength of the drone components and analysis on the thrust of the motor have been conducted to verify the proposed drone design concept based on the determined parameters. The cost estimation of the drone is about RM17683.65 and the overall weight is 26.823 kg. In conclusion, the drone design concept for transportation in the agricultural sector is proposed as a preliminary study for future works.
