Abstract

This work presents a study case of Agriculture Cyber-Physical Systems (ACPS), which uses temperature and humidity sensor in an automatic irrigation system for precision agriculture. The work consists of a low-cost, long-range monitoring, using sensors, solar cells, microcontroller and LoRa technology. Farms, when equipped with this ACPS, will be able to improve predictability and reduce its high degree of uncertainty in the supply chain.
