Abstract

Food security has become a strategic issue amid rising production demands and limited agricultural resources, making technology-based innovations such as smart agriculture necessary to improve efficiency and productivity. This study aims to design an information technology-based smart agriculture system capable of directly monitoring environmental conditions and assisting in decision-making processes for agricultural management. This study employs a quantitative method using a system development approach, encompassing the design of an IoT architecture, the implementation of environmental sensors, and system performance testing across various distances and operational conditions. The designed system is capable of monitoring environmental parameters such as soil moisture (40%–75%), air temperature (26°C–34°C), and light intensity (300–900 lux) with stability. Communication performance shows a packet delivery ratio of 100% at close range and remains above 90% at distances exceeding 150 meters, with latency ranging from 150–450 ms. Energy consumption was successfully reduced through duty cycling and sleep mode mechanisms, enabling the system to operate for extended periods. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that the implementation of IT-based smart agriculture can enhance monitoring efficiency and support data-driven decision-making. The developed system has proven to be reliable, efficient, and has the potential for widespread application to support food security. Further research is recommended to integrate more complex artificial intelligence analytics to enhance the system’s predictive capabilities and automation.
