Internet of Things in agriculture

Agriculture 4.0 & High Tech Farming are strictly related to connectivity between management system and tools (devices and equipment). That is called IoT approach. The definition of Internet of things is evolving due to the convergence of multiple technologies, real-time analytics, machine learning, commodity sensors, and embedded systems. In farming system like vineyard and tillage crops, the main applications are related to monitor soil, environment and crops but also to provide prescription maps essential to control automatic operation of devices and equipment. The systemic system of IoT permits to have augmented knowledge on the overall process that is essential to manage sustainability and product quality. IoT enhances traceability by block chain.
