Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The rapid advancement in technology has revolutionized various industries, and agriculture is no exception. This thesis focuses on the development of a Smart Agriculture System using Internet of Things (IoT) technology to enhance efficiency, productivity, and sustainability in agricultural practices. The integration of IoT technology in agriculture allows for real-time monitoring, data collection, and decision-making processes, leading to improved crop yield, resource management, and cost-effectiveness. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the project, highlighting the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definition of terms. The chapter sets the foundation for understanding the importance of implementing IoT technology in agriculture. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review covering ten key aspects related to IoT technology in agriculture. The review examines existing studies, technologies, and applications to provide a solid theoretical framework for the research. Chapter 3 details the research methodology, including research design, data collection methods, data analysis techniques, and the implementation plan for developing the Smart Agriculture System. The chapter outlines the steps taken to design and implement the IoT-based system effectively. Chapter 4 delves into an in-depth discussion of the findings obtained from the development and testing of the Smart Agriculture System. The chapter analyzes the results, identifies challenges, and discusses the implications of the findings on agricultural practices and future research directions. Chapter 5 concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings, discussing the significance of the research, and highlighting the practical implications of implementing the Smart Agriculture System. The chapter also offers recommendations for future research and practical applications of IoT technology in agriculture. Overall, this thesis contributes to the growing body of knowledge on IoT technology in agriculture and demonstrates the potential for enhancing agricultural practices through smart technologies. The development of the Smart Agriculture System serves as a valuable tool for farmers, agronomists, and policymakers to optimize resource use, improve crop productivity, and promote sustainable agricultural practices in the era of digital transformation.
