Internet of Things-Enabled Crop Growth Monitoring System for Smart Agriculture

Abstract

In order to solve the problems of high cost and difficult management of traditional agricultural planting, internet of things (IoT) technology was applied to realize real-time detection and intelligent management of crop growth and remote control of equipment, and change the traditional agricultural planting mode. The research results show that in MyEclipse development environment, using B/S (Browser/Server) architecture, Java and JavaScript language to design, Tomcat built server to publish information and complete the function of data storage and query, users can access the monitoring center in the local area network (LAN). When the detected data exceed the set threshold range, the control instructions issued by the monitoring center are transmitted to the main control chip through ethernet, and then the switching operation of the relay is controlled. The real-time monitoring of crop growth environment can be realized.

“…It is also attractive to develop control technologies for irrigation or fertigation systems, and to plan the administration of crops, which allows for an increase in the yield of crops and, at the same time, a reduction in environmental risks [153][154][155]. Another possibility is the monitoring of the crop or of climatological variables to which plantation managers can access remotely and through different platforms, allowing for efficient management [156,157].…”
