Abstract
A collection of best practices for publishing as well as connecting structured
data on the Web is referred to as “Linked Data.” In the past ten years, the practice of
Linked Open Data has significantly increased the structured data available on the Web.
This structured data provides machine-readable descriptions of real-world items,
opening hitherto unheard-of opportunities for research around natural language
processing. With the aid of technology, the agriculture sector advanced significantly,
becoming more data-driven and intelligent. Studies on how these data can be used, for
what kinds of tasks, and to what degree they can be helpful for agricultural tasks,
however, are lacking. Our paper puts an effort into providing an overview of concepts
and technologies in the Semantic Web and their applicability to farming.
