Abstract

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 data retrieved by sensors automation in agriculture is done by adopting decision-based system. With Precision agriculture productivity is optimized by maintaining sustainability as crop receives what is actual requirement on the basis of new techniques and software platforms. This review article includes Internet of Things (IoT), Wireless Sensors, Wireless communication and challenges faced in this area.
