The global population is going to reach 9.6 billion people by the year 2050, which obviously presents a significant challenge to the agriculture sector. With the growth of population, the number of agricultural equipment is also increasing, with its worldwide market estimated to reach a total of 206.29 billion dollars by 2026 according to Statista. In the face of unpredictable weather patterns, shifting climate, and concerns over environmental sustainability, IoT is proving to be a transformative force addressing and mitigating these challenges.
