Agriculture is one of the most vital sectors for human existence, as it provides the essential resource for survival food. In India, agriculture is not only a means of sustenance but also a cornerstone of the national economy. However, many farmers still rely heavily on traditional and indigenous farming practices, which often limit productivity and efficiency. With the rapid advancement of technology, particularly in areas such as the Internet of Things (IoT), automation, and precision farming, there is a tremendous opportunity to modernize agricultural practices. By adopting smart and innovative technologies, farmers can save time, reduce costs, optimize resource utilization, and improve yields. Yet, despite a growing global and national population, agricultural productivity continues to decline due to environmental, climatic, and resource challenges. If these issues are not addressed through technological integration, humanity may face significant difficulties in sustaining food production and ensuring long-term survival.
