Use of Information Technologies for Fruit Monitoring in Mango Farming
Abstract
The growing demand for food, water scarcity, and improved field management make the adoption of technologies essential to optimizing irrigation in agriculture. This study proposes a management system based on Information and Communication Technologies to monitor key environmental elements in mango production, aiming to reduce water costs and enhance water use efficiency. The solution integrates sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT) to provide real-time information on soil and plant conditions, enabling more precise and sustainable irrigation. This project is part of the Technological Extension Program (PET) and aims to promote technological solutions for agriculture.
