Background

There are many ways to introduce technology into agriculture. But when we use wireless sensors to benefit agriculture, it’s called smart agriculture. Intelligent agricultural sensor collect agricultural environmental indicators for farmers. So that they can make informed decisions to improve all aspects of their work. Whether it’s livestock or crop farming. The ultimate goal is to improve the quality and quantity of crops. At the same time reduce waste and optimize the use of manpower.

Intelligent agricultural sensor

The biggest advantage of these sensors is that they can collect huge amounts of data. Collecting data on everything from weather conditions to soil quality to how crops grow can be a game changer. There is no doubt that farmers know the crops and their land best. But sometimes problems can be hidden and unpredictable. That’s where these sensors help.Agricultural sensors can provide farmers with necessary agricultural environment monitoring data. Help them make informed decisions. Help them better manage costs, reduce waste and save water. Because they have tightened control over production. That will ultimately help them prosper their agricultural businesses and bring in higher incomes.

Weather stations combined with temperature and humidity sensors play a vital role in intelligent agriculture. Can provide environmental monitoring. The measurements provided can be used to map climatic conditions to select suitable crops. Weather can also be predicted directly by integrating the API into the sensor system gateway. In order to take preventive measures against any adverse weather conditions.

Optical sensors – These sensors use light to measure soil properties and have been developed to determine soil clay, organic matter and water content.Electrochemical Sensors – These sensors provide information on O2, CO2 and other essential gases as well as pH and soil nutrient levels. Sensor electrodes penetrate the soil to detect specific ions in the soil. Determining essential nutrients can provide the most suitable conditions for crop growth.Dielectric sensors (soil moisture sensors) – These sensors assess the moisture content in the soil. Once we know the water in the soil, crops can be better irrigated. This leads to better water management. Dielectric sensors can also be used to determine the pH of soil.
