Abstract
The integration of electronics and the Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing agribusiness, offering innovative solutions that enhance efficiency and productivity. In particular in livestock management, IoT-enabled sensors and devices monitor health, environmental conditions, and location, among others, providing real-time data to farmers. This technology allows early detection of health issues, reduces disease spread, and can even save animals’ lives.
This talk will explore the challenges needed to take IoT to the farm, and show examples of developed applications.
