SoilSense uses a network of IoT sensors placed across farmland to continuously monitor key soil health metrics, such as moisture levels, pH, temperature, and nutrient content.

These sensors transmit data to a cloud-based platform where sophisticated machine learning algorithms analyze the information in real time.

The platform then provides actionable insights and recommendations directly to farmers via a mobile or web app, allowing them to adjust farming practices like irrigation, fertilization, and crop rotation dynamically.

Furthermore, the system can predict potential soil issues before they occur, leveraging data trends and historical patterns to enhance proactive decision-making.

SoilSense empowers farmers with precise, real-time insights that improve soil management, optimize input usage, and maximize crop yields.

Compared to manual or periodic testing, it offers a dynamic and holistic view of soil health that can adapt to environmental changes and drive sustainable practices.

With advances in IoT sensor affordability and machine learning capabilities, SoilSense is technically feasible and aligns with current precision agriculture trends.

Initial barrier costs for sensor deployment are offset by scalability and reduced long-term input expenses.

The main challenges include ensuring sensor durability and integration with existing farm management systems.
