ABSTRACT

Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is a strategy for guiding the transformation and reorientation of agricultural systems to support development and food security in a changing climate. CSA aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture. Various technologies, including drones and robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, decision support systems, the Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence and information technology, are commonly used in the power sector for monitoring and data analysis. These technologies, which can be used to map and collect data from farm fields and plantations, are becoming increasingly popular. This comprehensive overview chapter discusses the Internet of Things’ promise for agricultural development, as well as the challenges associated with integrating new technology into conventional agricultural systems.
