The worlds dependent on the agriculture industry is enormous. The demand is continually increase and allow this industry growing very high. Although people have worked in agriculture for more than 1000 years, technology could not be separated as it can be apart to foster agriculture business.

Almost all companies have many acres of land and they must maintain and its not feasible for every farmer to take frequent trips around the property to perform basic task such as watering soil in the absence of raining. By providing several solutions, the irrigation process is automated by sensors detect how much rain has fallen recently as well as whether the soil is need of watering. The sensors send data to computer that process and decided when an how much to water. Many automated home irrigation system also are programmable and use rain sensors, which keep the irrigation system from turn on o turn off when rainfall occurs.

In addition to keeping the irrigation system. Computer can utilize by using sensors to analyze the condition of crops in the field and determine whether pests or disease are affect by the crops. If detect, computer send a notification to the appropriate individual to make corrective action.
