In recent years, the agriculture industry has been experiencing significant growth in demand driven by the increasing need for fresh produce, grains, pulses, and vegetables worldwide. The growing prevalence of lifestyle-driven diseases and chronic health issues such as hypertension, cardiac diseases, diabetes, and others have resulted in increasing consumption of fresh produce and organic agriculture products. Increasing inclination towards consuming food products made with naturally sourced and organically grown materials also adds to the growth of the agriculture industry. These aspects have stimulated the increasing adoption of technology-driven processes, machinery, automation tools, and software support.
Agriculture sensors are technology equipped with electronic devices that collect complex data associated with various influential factors such as weather changes, soil moisture, water levels, humidity, changes in plant conditions, and more. It assists systems and software technology that process the collected data to provide actionable intelligence and insights to users. These insights include water level indications, weather condition insights, forecasts, post-weather change influence measures, and more. Different types of such sensors include location sensors, electrochemical sensors, airflow sensors, optical sensors, pressure sensors, mechanical sensors, water sensors, and others.
