Digital (Smart) Agriculture Applications

​ ​

Smart agriculture is a technique that enables soil and product management to increase agricultural productivity and to minimize the damage to the environment with more economical use of resources. With the use of information and control systems developed with smart agricultural practices, it is aimed to prevent waste of resources, increase the gross return of the product and minimize environmental pollution caused by production. Smart farming techniques can be used at almost every stage of production, from tillage to harvest. The digital transformation in agriculture offers us many opportunities and brings significant benefits in the added value of agriculture.

Today, when wireless communication techniques are highly developed, a new era in which machines can talk to each other will come to life with 5G. Of course, it is inevitable that the agricultural sector will also be affected by this development. For example, less carbon emissions can be achieved as a result of the use of new fertilizer types developed by measuring and monitoring carbon emissions. The convergence to be achieved with simple IoT devices with carbon measurement sensors and 5G network will allow these and similar measurements and analysis. It has been determined that the effect of soil degradation in the last 50 years has caused a 13% loss in agricultural productivity. Soilless agriculture should be managed in greenhouse areas with minimum water and minimum fertilizer, humidity and heat settings should be managed in a way to get the highest efficiency.

Farm Management Information and Decision Support Systems, Precision Agriculture Solutions, Agricultural Automation, Agricultural Drones and Robotics, Data Analysis Technologies, customized artificial intelligence applications for agriculture, cloud systems, 5G technologies together with water management and agricultural applications appear as studies that can be used effectively.
