The Future of Agriculture:Agricultural Internet of Things

Agricultural Internet of Things, that is, the Internet of Things that participates in automatic control through real-time display of various instruments or as parameters of automatic control. It can provide a scientific basis for the precise regulation of greenhouses, and achieve the purpose of increasing production, improving quality, regulating growth cycle and improving economic benefits.

The general application of the agricultural Internet of Things is to form a monitoring network with a large number of sensor nodes, and collect information through various sensors to help farmers find problems in time and accurately determine the location of the problem. From the production mode of isolated machinery to the production mode centered on information and software, a variety of automated, intelligent and remote-controlled production equipment is widely used.

The three major systems of the Agricultural Internet of Things:

1. The agricultural expert intelligent system takes the development and utilization of the intelligent expert system as the guide, analyzes and judges environmental data such as climate, soil and water quality, systematically plans the distribution of the park, rationally selects agricultural species, and scientifically guides the ecological rotation.

2. The IoT control system for agricultural production is based on the Internet of Things technology. Various wireless sensors are used to collect information such as light, temperature, humidity and other parameters of the agricultural production site and the growth status of agricultural products in real time to remotely monitor the production environment. After the collected parameters and information are digitally transformed, the real-time transmission network platform is used to aggregate and integrate, and the intelligent system of agricultural experts is used to perform timing, quantitative and positioning cloud computing processing according to the requirements of various indicators of agricultural product growth, and to remotely and accurately specify agricultural equipment in a timely manner. Automatically open or close to realize intelligent and automated agricultural production process.

3. The safety traceability system for organic agricultural products builds a safety traceability system for organic agricultural products by adding RFID electronic tags to the agricultural products themselves or in the shipping packaging in the production process, and continuously adding and updating information in the links of transportation, warehousing, and sales. The organic agricultural product safety traceability system strengthens the data sharing and transparent management of the whole process of agricultural production, processing, transportation and sales, realizes the traceability of the whole process of agricultural products, improves the management efficiency of agricultural production, promotes the brand building of agricultural products, and improves the quality of agricultural products. added value.

Advantages of IoT in Agriculture：

1. Scientific cultivation: Through the analysis of sensor data, it can be determined that the soil is suitable for cultivation of crops, and the climate environment sensor can collect real-time crop growth environment data.

2. Precise control: After various sensors are arranged, the system quickly adjusts the temperature and humidity, carbon dioxide concentration, light intensity, etc. of the cultivation base according to the requirements of crop growth.

3. Accurate and efficient: Unlike traditional agricultural cultivation methods, IoT agricultural cultivation methods are more active and intelligent, and are more accurate and efficient than manual cultivation methods.

4. Green agriculture: It is difficult for traditional agriculture to record all monitoring data in the cultivation process, while IoT agriculture can save all monitoring data through various monitoring sensors and network systems, which is convenient for the traceability of agricultural commodities.

The future development trend of agricultural Internet of things

In the future agricultural production, the application of the agricultural Internet of Things system will be more extensive. Farmers see the benefits brought by the use of advanced technology and will actively choose an intelligent system suitable for their own agricultural production to increase the output of agricultural products and increase income. The data processing system is more precise and intelligent. In the future agricultural data processing, with the continuous maturity of cloud computing technology, agricultural data will be more accurate, safe and intelligent. The agricultural data processing system will actively analyze the most suitable varieties for local planting, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of various varieties, for farmers to choose.

With the policy inclination of governments around the world and the strong support and investment of enterprises in the Internet of Things industry, the Internet of Things industry has been rapidly born. According to domestic and foreign data, the Internet of Things has undergone great development since 1999. every industry sector. It is foreseeable that more and more industry fields, technologies and applications will intersect with the Internet of Things. The transformation and optimization to the direction of the Internet of Things has become the development direction of the times. The development of the Internet of Things and the acceleration of technology integration.

In order to plan agricultural development in the context of globalization in the future, it is necessary to speed up the analysis, prediction and release of agricultural information.
