The integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing in real-time crop and soil health monitoring employs advanced sensor technologies to facilitate the continuous, precise, and remote evaluation of agricultural conditions. By deploying IoT devices in the field, essential parameters such as soil moisture, nutrient levels, temperature, and crop health indicators can be captured in real time. These data are transmitted to cloud platforms, where they are processed, analysed and visualized, thereby enabling farmers to make timely decisions to optimize irrigation, fertilization, and pest control. The integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) with cloud services significantly enhances scalability, data accessibility, and predictive analytics capabilities, thereby improving crop yield, resource efficiency, and sustainability. This approach effectively addresses key challenges in contemporary agriculture by offering actionable insights through automated monitoring systems, which reduce manual labour and enhance responsiveness to environmental changes.
