Abstract
By 2050, food production is expected to expand by 70% to feed 2.3 billion
people around the world. New agricultural farming technology will be needed to feed
the growing global population with safe and healthy foods. With this, in the last few
decades, we have witnessed a lot of technological advancements in the farming
industry. Agriculture is becoming smarter than ever before thanks to the deployment of
disruptive technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT). Farmers have enhanced their
control over the process of growing crops and rearing livestock due to the many smart
farming IoT gadgets available on the market. The Internet of Things (IoT) is generating
a lot of excitement in a variety of industries, including infrastructure, automotive, and
retail. Precision agriculture is the IoT's most critical use case, yet it is not often
discussed. With our globe on the verge of a food crisis, these new technology
breakthroughs to boost harvests could prove life-saving. Precision agriculture is
gaining traction as a new farming direction through the Internet of Things. In this
chapter, we discuss the IoT technologies that are used to increase data quality, and how
they are employed in the field.
