Smart agriculture systems with combinations of advanced technologies are used in an attempt to increase the competence of certain farming activities and the standard of living for farm employees by reducing significant labor and tedious tasks. Internet-of-things-based sensors are capable of providing such information about smart agriculture and then acting upon predictions using data analysis. The proposed methodology works alongside a cloud-based server and a mobile-based device (ideally an Android/iOS device) to assist the user in regulating the standing of the plant as monitored by a mix of software packages and hardware devices. Our system detects changes in the moisture, temperature, and light intensity conditions in and around the plant and performs a learning-based call to supply necessary irrigation and illumination to plants. It permits the user to update, manage, and monitor using wireless sensing element networks. The sensors measure the aforementioned parameters and store the data within the cloud, which users can access at any time from anywhere. Farmers will have access to the most up-to-date knowledge so that they can act accordingly and make modifications as needed. This smart planting has become a core tool associated with cost-effective technology in agricultural modernization technologies. The proposed smart modern agriculture tool can be used to monitor climatic factors such as temperature, moisture, and virtually all environmental parameters relevant to the growth of plants.
