Abstract |
|
Nowadays, most farmers all over the world are suffering from crop loss and irregular growth which caused due to some environmental changes or other reasons such as; climate change, soil composition, cropping techniques, weeds, and illnesses. For this purpose, precision agriculture plays a vital role as a farming method that employs data to ensure that crops grow in the best possible conditions. Therefore, Growers can track their crop’s state by monitoring key point indicators, which can assist them to detect if their crops are suffering from water stress, nitrogen stress, or disease development. Mainly, precision agriculture depends on utilizing wireless sensors which used to obtain accurate information about farmers’ cultivation land by measuring various parameters of the land and then applying these parameters to earn more money from agriculture. This paper will discuss and survey the advantages of precision agriculture over traditional agriculture, and describes the numerous sensors used by precision agriculture to detect various land factors such as moisture, temperature, and soil salinity, which is the most significant aspect of farming. The major contributions of this paper are it can help researchers to define existing problems, methods and techniques in precision agriculture and choose the proper one that cope with their research problems or helping them to discover new research domains. |
