Abstract

The agriculture Internet of things (IoT) has yielded substantial results not only in enhancing agricultural productivity, but also has effectively improvised agricultural product value, cut labor costs, raised farmer income, and achieved agriculture upgradation as well as intellect. This document methodically reviews the state of agricultural IoT study. To begin, the existing state of agriculture IoT is depicted, followed by a summary of its system architecture. The four important agriculture IoT technologies are then reviewed in depth. Following that, usage of agriculture IoT in the sample sectors is announced. In conclusion, the issues that exist in agriculture IoT are examined, and a forecast of agricultural IoT’s forthcoming growth is provided.
