A smart farm essentially uses a system built to monitor the crops by using a variety of sensors, to measure light, humidity, temperature, and moisture.
The data process looks something like this:
Once you have that data … now what?

Typically, a farmer or Ag business is located in rural America, and they are wondering what cybersecurity has to do with them. And what, if anything, they can or should do about it.
Agriculture and specifically farmers don’t think they are a target for cybercriminals.
There is a false sense of security in the farming and Ag industries
At Imagine IT, our Chief Security Office and Founder Peter Durand, a 25-year expert in cyber security, warns that farms and agriculture are a very real target, and often easy prey for cyber-criminals.
Why? Because Ag businesses and farmers have very limited investment in cybersecurity to date.
Farms and AG businesses are now all connected … and vulnerable
For an industry that is betting on farms becoming increasingly more digitally connected and automated, the need for proper cyber security has become even more critical and urgent.
Whether you are an owner of a co-op or an individual farmer who has connected their operations and data to the “cloud,” you are a now a big target,

How technology will help
Like most industries in the United States, American farmers and the ag industry face widespread labor shortages. And even though the causes are complex, there are 4 key factors:
The labor shortage is the greatest limiting factor on farms today
Farm labor shortages have not happened overnight; they have been an ongoing issue for decades.
Technology and automated systems can help
Automated farming systems can help reduce and alleviate the challenge of attracting and retaining skilled workers. In addition, Ag-tech and smart farming can bring new efficiencies to farm systems and improve overall productivity without causing costs to soar in tandem.
Technology can also help alleviate labor shortages by automating mundane tasks and leaving important jobs to skilled workers.
When fewer workers are required, the pressures of hiring labor is reduced
