Internet is experiencing a very explosive growth nowadays with the amount of the devices connecting to it. Earlier we had only personal computers (pCs) and Mobile handset connected to internet but now with Internet of Things i.e. IoT concept of connecting things with internet, millions of device are connecting with it. This development of IoT leads to the idea of machine to machine communication which means that two machines can communicate to each other and also all the data which was previously with private server can now is available on internet so the user can access it remotely. Application of IoT is feasible in almost all industries particularly where speed of communication is not an issue. This paper proposes the application of cloud based IoT in the agriculture domain. Precision agriculture is basically a concept which insists to provide right amount of resources at and for exact duration of time. These resources can be any things such as water, light, pesticides etc. To implement precision agriculture the benefits of IOT has been utilized in the proposed paper. The fundamental idea is to sense all the required parameter from the agriculture field and take required decision to control the actuator. These agriculture parameters are Soil Moisture, Temperature & Relative Humidity around plant, Light intensity. Based on the reading sensed by the sensor suitable action is taken i.e. irrigation valve is actuated based on soil moisture readings, valve for fogger (for spraying water droplet) is actuated based on the Relative humidity(RH) readings etc. This paper proposed the development of the sensor node capable of measuring all these parameter and creating the actuation signal for all the actuator. On top of that sensor nodes are also capable of sending this data to cloud. An Android application is also developed in order to access all these agricultural parameter.
