Abstract

This study clarifies how precision agriculture powered by the Internet of Things may optimize agricultural productivity and sustainability. Important connections, like the positive association between agricultural output and soil moisture, are revealed by analyzing data from Internet of Things sensors. Test findings for Precision Agriculture show impressive production increases: 20% better yields for wheat, 15% higher yields for maize, and 5% higher yields for soybeans. Interestingly, these improvements come with significant resource savings, with a 10% to 20% reduction in the use of pesticides and fertilizers. The evaluation of sustainable yield highlights efficiency levels between 92% and 95%. These results demonstrate how precision agriculture has the potential to completely transform contemporary agricultural methods by maximizing crop output, promoting sustainability, and reducing environmental impact.
