IoT Applications for Agriculture & Livestock
Precision Agriculture
Using IoT technology to make agriculture “smart” allows farmers to work with more precision and efficiency, and hence reduce overall usage of water, energy, and chemicals. Furthermore, data-based insights (gathered through smart sensors) can improve their decision-making and operations to achieve improved quality and more profitable performance.
To achieve high-yielding, sustainable and efficient food production, IoT sensors can collect real-time data on key parameters such as moisture, soil nutrients, electrical conductivity, nitrogen concentration, weather, CO2 concentration, energy consumption, and others.
Using IoT technology also supports farmers’ sustainability efforts by allowing them to reduce the overall use of energy, water, and chemicals.
Hydroponic Farming
Hydroponic systems are overly sensitive and require constant monitoring to yield the desired amount, size and quality of crops.
The use of IoT technology enables the continuous, uninterrupted and real-time monitoring of key parameters such as:
- PH
- PMM (concentration of nutrients in water)
- Temperature
- CO2
- Humidity
- Light
The gathered data provides growers with insight to enhance their hydroponic system consistently and knowledgeably.
Furthermore, the IoT architecture will alert growers when something is wrong, thus allowing them to make informed decisions to maximize yields and quality.
Livestock monitoring
IoT technology helps farmers to collect data on the health and behavior of the animals on their farms.
The data can be used to improve the management and care of the animals through precise and timely interventions, including to prevent potential health issues.
Furthermore, IoT technology can be used in barns and coops to monitor the temperature, humidity, CO2 and Ammonia concentrations in the animals’ environment.
Overall, the use of IoT in livestock monitoring can help improve the health, productivity, and welfare of animals on the farm.
