Abstract:
Nowadays, Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the emerging technologies offers assistance in many important sectors. Agriculture is one of the important sectors globally which contributes to food security. The trends of IoT can be incorporated into various agricultural activities such as livestock monitoring and crop monitoring, etc. Various sensors and IoT gadgets are used in live monitoring, collection and processing of data. Processed data could be used to make predictions. Climate change is one of the critical environmental issue at the moment. We do not have our control over the occurrence of natural disasters, though the communication and forecasting offer a great support to us in protecting lives and to mend the ways towards a better future. Climate changes affect the land and water in many ways. The detrimental effect of continuous or unexpected flood, drought is some of the major concerns. The aim of this study was to introduce new technologies into agricultural production processes to improve those by reducing the impact of climate change over them. Therefore, this article discusses the applications of IoT in agriculture to mitigate the problems and consequences of climate change such as flood, drought, plant diseases, agricultural pollution and greenhouse gas emission with an emphasis on agricultural production.
