Today, with the rapid development of global economy and technology, the Internet of Things (IoT) is changing all walks of life at an unprecedented speed.When the IoT technology penetrates into traditional agriculture, it gives birth to the new production mode of intelligent agriculture.Intelligent agriculture not only improves the efficiency of agricultural production, but also optimizes the allocation of resources, providing a new impetus for the sustainable development of agriculture.This paper will discuss how to upgrade traditional agriculture to smart agriculture from the perspective of senior engineers.It also analyzes the core functions and functions of smart agriculture.
Infrastructure upgrade: Build a stable, high-speed and low-latency agricultural Internet of Things.To ensure that sensors and equipment in farmland can transmit data in real time and accurately.
Data collection and analysis: deploy various sensors to monitor the farmland environment (such as soil moisture, temperature, light, etc.).It also provides decision support for agricultural production through data analysis.
Introduce automatic equipment: use automatic agricultural machinery, irrigation systems, fertilizer applicators, etc., to reduce labor costs and improve production efficiency.
Establish an agricultural big data platform: integrate multi-source data, through cloud computing and artificial intelligence technology,Provide precise and personalized services for agricultural production.
Training and promotion: train farmers to master technologies and knowledge related to smart agriculture, and strengthen the publicity and promotion of smart agriculture.Improve the acceptance and participation of farmers.
Real-time monitoring and early warning: real-time monitoring of farmland environment and crop growth through the Internet of Things technology.Detect and warn potential problems in time.
Accurate decision support: based on big data and artificial intelligence technology, it provides accurate decision-making suggestions for agricultural production.Including sowing, fertilizing, applying medicine, etc.
Automation and intelligent operation: realize the automation and intelligence of agricultural production with the help of automation equipment and technology.And that labor intensity of farmer is reduced.
Optimization of agricultural resources: optimize the allocation and use of agricultural resources such as water, fertilizer and medicine through data analysis and technical means.The production cost is reduced and the environment is protected.
Traceability of quality and safety of agricultural products: establish a traceability system for the whole process of production, processing and transportation of agricultural products.Ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products.
Improve the efficiency of agricultural production: significantly improve the efficiency of agricultural production through the application of smart agriculture technology.To meet the growing demand for food.
Optimize the allocation of resources: through accurate data analysis and decision support, reduce the waste of resources and realize the optimal allocation of resources.
Protect the environment: Smart agriculture helps to reduce the excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides and reduce the impact of agriculture on the environment.
Improve the quality and safety of agricultural products: ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products through the whole process of monitoring and traceability system.
Promote rural economic development: The development of smart agriculture will drive economic growth and increase employment opportunities in rural areas.
The upgrading of traditional agriculture to smart agriculture is a systematic and complex project, which requires joint efforts and cooperation in many aspects.With the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous expansion of application scenarios,We have reason to believe that smart agriculture will play a greater role in the future and bring more far-reaching impact on global agricultural production.As practitioners of the Internet of Things, we have the responsibility and obligation to promote the development of this process.To contribute to the construction of a more efficient and sustainable agricultural production system.
