Big data based on IoT in the agriculture industry: developments, opportunities, and challenges ahead

With the creation of mobile phones and new technologies, new opportunities have been created in industries; This is while among these technologies are big data and the Internet of Things, which can help increase the potential of the agricultural industry. Meanwhile, technological advances have also changed the way data is collected, shared, and used. Governments and non-governmental actors are increasingly using digital technologies, and new sources and approaches to data have increased the determination of governments and professionals to further integrate data science with agriculture. Our goal is to evaluate the acceptance conditions of big data technologies in agricultural applications, based on the research conducted in this direction based on the growing technologies in this field. In this regard, the literature of the subject has been reviewed and the most important features, opportunities and challenges facing the agricultural industry in the face of the huge amount of data have been reviewed and evaluated. The results show that among the main characteristics of big data (volume, speed, variety, accuracy) in the field of agriculture, the most emphasis is on speed and variety. The main concern of the stakeholders is the cost, user-friendliness and embedding of the solution in their current working procedure.
