Možnosti uplatnění internetu věcí (IoT) v precizním zemědělství v ČR

Digitization, modern technology (IoT), development of sensor technology and data processing in recent years it has started to promote also in the agricultural sector (crop, livestock production) in the Czech Republic Republic. The aim of the paper is to explain the general principles of IoT in modern agricultural production (precise agriculture or Agriculture 4.0) and on our own example of development of sensor technology for measurement temperature and humidity of air and soil practically describe its possible future application. The project is focused on realization of wireless sensor system with printed sensor elements for monitoring soil and atmospheric humidity and temperature. Preliminary results of laboratory measurements show that printed carbon-based sensor elements are usable for this purpose in modern agricultural and open the potential for realization of sensor systems through sustainable production technologies and materials.
