Abstract: The present state of agriculture and its demand is very much different than what it used to be two decades back. Hence, Precision Agriculture (PA) is more in demand to address this challenging demand. With consistent pressure to develop multiple products over the same agricultural land, farmers find PA’s adoption the best rescue-based solution with restricted resources. PA accelerates the yield and potentially assists in catering up the demand of scarcity of demands of food. With the increasing adoption of PA-based technologies over farming, there are best possibilities to explore efficient farming practices and better decision-making facilitated by real-time data availability. There isan evolution of various novel technologies to boost agricultural performance, i.e. variable rate technology, Geomapping, remote sensing, automated steering system, and satellite positioning system. Apart from this, it is also observed that Internet-of-Things (IoT) and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) have been slowly penetrating this area to acceleratePA's technological advancement. It is noticed that the adoption of sensing technology is a common factor in almost all the techniques used in PA. However, there is no clear idea about the most dominant approach in this regard. Therefore, this paper discusses existing approaches concerning standard conventional PA and sensing-based PA using WSN. The study contributes towards some impressive learning outcomes to state that WSN and IoT are extensive to boost PA.

Keywords: Precision agriculture; smart farming; wireless sensor network; internet-of-things; remote sensing; variable rate technology
