Farmers in Eastern North Carolina are increasingly turning to IoT sensors to combat the adverse effects of flooding, soil salinity, and saltwater intrusion, which pose significant threats to their agricultural operations. A collaborative effort involving North Carolina State University (NC State), the NC State Plant Sciences Initiative, East Carolina University (ECU), and SAS has resulted in a pilot project that utilizes affordable, field-ready agricultural sensor systems. These sensors are designed to provide farmers with real-time data on critical environmental factors, enabling them to make well-informed decisions to protect their crops, livestock, and farm equipment.
