As per the various research statistics it has been observed that global population will rise to approximately 10 billion by 2050 and to feed this massive population in terms of food, agriculture industry is shifting towards modern farming system using Internet of Things (IoT). It has been observed that with the advent of IoT in agriculture sector, there are many significant changes has been observed like exponential increase in farming efficiency, increased food production, smart farming with latest sensors equipped devices, integrated crop prediction, reduced fuel utilization, etc. These Internet of things (IoT) based devices would bring revolutionary changes in Agro based industry and further helps to establish a sustainable agriculture with conserving human resources, protecting land from chemicals and increasing productivity of crop. The various critical factors which are necessary for the selection of crop are also discussed. In this paper the author has also done a comparative analysis between Traditional Farming devices and IoT (Internet of things) devices based on the parameters like Data Collection, Efficiency, Accuracy, Maintenance, etc which will provide clear understanding that how IoT devices can revolutionized the way we approach farming by providing real-time data collection and analysis. The wide uses of Internet of things (IoT) sensor devices which will be helpful in agriculture industry like Electrochemical Sensors, Airflow Sensors, Mechanical Sensors, Dielectric Soil Moisture Sensors etc. are discussed. In this paper the authors had formulated few research questions like IoT devices for finding moisture in soil, IoT devices for selecting temperature, IoT devices for rainfall prediction, etc. and shown how the selection of crop could be improved with the help of IoT sensors.
