Firos About the Editors 235 Index 237 PREFACE Agriculture is one of the most fundamental human activities. As long as we’ve pursued it, we’ve tried to master it. Better techniques meant greater yields. This, in turn, kept humans happier and healthier – and helped birth modern society as we know it. There’s only one hitch in this success story, however. As our farming has expanded, the usage of resources such as land, fertilizer, and water has grown exponentially. Environmental pressures from modern farming techniques have stressed our natural landscapes. Still, by some estimates, worldwide food production will need to increase 70% by 2050 to keep up with global demand. With global populations rising, it falls to technology to make farming processes more efficient and keep up with the growing demand. Fortunately, the combination of more data from the Internet of agricultural things and new machine learning capabilities can contribute a crucial part. Machine Learning (ML) and the Internet of Things (IoT) can play a very promising role in the Agricultural Industry. Some examples will be: an artificial intelligence programmed drone to monitor the field, an IoT designed automated crop watering system, sensors embedded in the field to monitor temperature and humidity, etc. The agriculture industry is the largest in the world, but when it comes to innovation here there is a lot more to explore. IoT devices can be used to analyze the status of crops. For instance, with soil sensors, farmers can detect any viii Vishal Jain and Jyotir Moy Chatterjee irregular conditions such as high acidity and efficiently tackle these issues to improve their yield. The data gathered from sensors allows applying analytics and getting the insight that aid decisions around harvesting. In this book, we will try to explore the impacts of ML and IoT in the agriculture sector and we will try to point out the challenges facing the agro-industry which can be solved by both Machine Learning and the Internet of Things. Chapter 1 brings together the components required in smart farming and how they are enabled by artificial intelligence and IoT. Chapter 2 begins with the history of agriculture, followed by advances in agricultural technology, highlighting IoT, smart farming using IoT, the various uses of IoT in agriculture, benefits and restrictions. Chapter 3 proposes an IoT-based model to alert farmers for soil moisture conditions, potential damage in agricultural land from the fire and automatic water irrigation started at low moisture of soil or fire. Chapters 4 and 5 outline intelligent systems, the studies aimed to develop intelligent systems for identification of pests and diseases and current literature with proposed solutions in the form of information technology through Internet of Things (IoT), image analysis, machine learning, AI algorithms, and cloud services. Chapter 6 demonstrates the potential of agricultural wireless sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT), as well as the challenges that are expected to arise when this technology is integrated with traditional farming techniques. Chapter 7 proposes a methodology which helps in early detection of disease or infection in agricultural crops by suggesting a sampling methodology to detect the infection at an early stage. Chapter 8 aims at developing an automated smart irrigation system with the help of the Internet of Things. Its aim is to maintain an adequate amount of water needed by the crop by monitoring the amount of soil moisture, temperature and humidity in the soil. Chapter 9 discusses the core ICT-enabled facilities and instruments that have a potential productive effect on farmers, rural citizens and the entire nation's agricultural economy. Chapter 10 discusses adapting the capability of IoT for data collection of features of crops and for automated decision making with data analytics algorithms.
