Abstract - The agricultural sector is undergoing a technological transformation in response to growing demands for food security, environmental sustainability, and resource efficiency. Precision farming, which integrates data analytics, remote sensing, and automation, has emerged as a pivotal approach to optimize agricultural practices and improve crop productivity. This paper presents a smart agriculture platform designed to support precision farming through real-time data acquisition, decision support, and knowledge dissemination. The platform utilizes Internet of Things (IoT) devices, satellite imagery, and sensor networks to collect vital data on machinery performance, soil properties, climatic conditions, fertilizer usage, and crop status. This data is processed using machine learning algorithms to generate actionable insights, enabling data-driven decisions that enhance yield and reduce input waste.
A key feature of the platform is an integrated knowledge-sharing system that provides access to curated content such as best practices, expert-written articles, and educational resources focused on sustainable farming. The platform also features an intuitive, mobile-friendly interface to support small and medium-scale farmers in low-resource environments. Real-time monitoring, anomaly detection, and predictive analytics further increase its effectiveness by enabling early interventions to mitigate risks related to pests, disease, or weather extremes. By bridging the gap between traditional agricultural practices and advanced digital technologies, this system contributes to the development of a more connected, efficient, and resilient agricultural ecosystem.
Initial evaluations demonstrate significant improvements in decision-making accuracy, resource optimization, and overall productivity. This study outlines the architecture, functionality, and potential impact of smart agriculture systems, establishing their role in the future of sustainable and technology-driven farming.
