Book Internet of Things  IoT  based Precision Irrigation with LoRaWAN Technology Applied to Vegetable Production

Download or read book Internet of Things IoT based Precision Irrigation with LoRaWAN Technology Applied to Vegetable Production written by Haozhe Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Precision irrigation with sensors has proven to be effective for water saving in crop production. Internet of things (IoT) system is necessary for monitoring real-time data from sensors and automating irrigation systems. Long-range wide-area network (LoRaWAN), a type of low-power wide-area network (LPWAN), is low-cost and easy to be implemented in IoT systems that can be used for precision crop irrigation. In this study, an IoT-based precision irrigation system with LoRaWAN technology was developed and evaluated as a precision management tool on fresh-market tomato production in an open field. Four irrigation scheduling treatments were designed and tested, including ET (ETc), MP60 (Watermark 200SS-5 soil matric potential sensors, -60 kPa), MP40 (Watermark 200SS-5 soil matric potential sensors, -40 kPa), and GesCoN (decision support system). The treatments were arranged based on a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four replications. System feasibility, yield, quality, and irrigation water use efficiency (iWUE) were evaluated during the experiment. The results indicated that treatment MP60 and GesCoN had a marketable yield 15.2% and 22.1% higher than ET, respectively. MP40 had a marketable yield 12.5% lower than ET. GesCoN had a significantly higher yield than ET and MP40. However, MP60 did not produce significantly different results from GesCoN and ET but had higher yield than MP40. MP40 received relatively low water via irrigation because of unproper installation and positioning of the soil moisture sensors, which caused a higher incidence of blossom end-rot and thus lower marketable yield. These results suggest the importance of installing sensors in multiple sections of a given field to ensure soil moisture reading are representative of the actual field conditions. Results from MP60 were not significantly different from GesCoN and ET on marketable fruit numbers, fruit dry matter, fruit total soluble solids (TSS), and iWUE. Nevertheless, the LoRaWAN-based IoT system worked well in terms of power consumption, communication, sensors reading and valve control. It can be potentially implemented for precision and automatic irrigation operation in vegetable fields.

Book Internet of Things and Analytics for Agriculture  Volume 3

Download or read book Internet of Things and Analytics for Agriculture Volume 3 written by Prasant Kumar Pattnaik and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-10 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses one of the major challenges in agriculture which is delivery of cultivate produce to the end consumers with best possible price and quality. Currently all over the world, it is found that around 50% of the farm produce never reaches the end consumer due to wastage and suboptimal prices. The authors present solutions to reduce the transport cost, predictability of prices on the past data analytics and the current market conditions, and number of middle hops and agents between the farmer and the end consumer using IoT-based solutions. Again, the demand by consumption of agricultural products could be predicted quantitatively; however, the variation of harvest and production by the change of farm's cultivated area, weather change, disease and insect damage, etc., could be difficult to be predicted, so that the supply and demand of agricultural products has not been controlled properly. To overcome, this edited book designed the IoT-based monitoring system to analyze crop environment and the method to improve the efficiency of decision making by analyzing harvest statistics.

Book IoT based Intelligent Modelling for Environmental and Ecological Engineering

Download or read book IoT based Intelligent Modelling for Environmental and Ecological Engineering written by Paul Krause and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-31 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings to readers thirteen chapters with contributions to the benefits of using IoT and Cloud Computing to agro-ecosystems from a multi-disciplinary perspective. IoT and Cloud systems have prompted the development of a Cloud digital ecosystem referred to as Cloud-to-thing continuum computing. The key success of IoT computing and the Cloud digital ecosystem is that IoT can be integrated seamlessly with the physical environment and therefore has the potential to leverage innovative services in agro-ecosystems. Areas such as ecological monitoring, agriculture, and biodiversity constitute a large area of potential application of IoT and Cloud technologies. In contrast to traditional agriculture systems that have employed aggressive policies to increase productivity, new agro-ecosystems aim to increase productivity but also achieve efficiency and competitiveness in modern sustainable agriculture and contribute, more broadly, to the green economy and sustainable food-chain industry. Fundamental research as well as concrete applications from various real-life scenarios, such as smart farming, precision agriculture, green agriculture, sustainable livestock and sow farming, climate threat, and societal and environmental impacts, is presented. Research issues and challenges are also discussed towards envisioning efficient and scalable solutions to agro-ecosystems based on IoT and Cloud technologies. Our fundamental belief is that we can collectively trigger a new revolution that will transition agriculture into an equable system that not only feeds the world, but also contributes to mitigating the climate change and biodiversity crises that our historical actions have triggered.

Book Smart Agriculture

Download or read book Smart Agriculture written by Govind Singh Patel and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-02-11 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book endeavours to highlight the untapped potential of Smart Agriculture for the innovation and expansion of the agriculture sector. The sector shall make incremental progress as it learns from associations between data over time through Artificial Intelligence, deep learning and Internet of Things applications. The farming industry and Smart agriculture develop from the stringent limits imposed by a farm's location, which in turn has a series of related effects with respect to supply chain management, food availability, biodiversity, farmers' decision-making and insurance, and environmental concerns among others. All of the above-mentioned aspects will derive substantial benefits from the implementation of a data-driven approach under the condition that the systems, tools and techniques to be used have been designed to handle the volume and variety of the data to be gathered. Contributions to this book have been solicited with the goal of uncovering the possibilities of engaging agriculture with equipped and effective profound learning algorithms. Most agricultural research centres are already adopting Internet of Things for the monitoring of a wide range of farm services, and there are significant opportunities for agriculture administration through the effective implementation of Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Big Data and IoT structures.
