Abstract
Smart agriculture is revolutionizing the entire farming industry. There has been a significant increase in agricultural yields during the 20th and 21st centuries. This can be attributed to the fact that farms are becoming automated with the use of adequate software and hardware. These are user-friendly as well as simple to use enabling easy monitoring for farmers. The latest technology is revolutionizing almost all fields that were traditional at one point in time, such as agriculture, nutrition, genetics, satellite imaging, and meteorology, to name a few. Crop yields have increased with advances in plant science. Efficient irrigation techniques are a must to ensure a quality yield from farming. The cost of end products should not be allowed to increase, as that will affect the morale of farmers adversely. The Food and Agricultural Organization of the UN (FAO) has estimated that there should be at least a 70% increase in food production by 2050.
