This paper examines the role of Internet of Things (IoT) in Agricultural Sector. Agriculture is becoming an important growing sector due to increasing population. Crucial challenge in agriculture sector is to enhance farm productivity and grade of farming without continuous human intervention. The motive of this work is to propose a smart agricultural method based on Internet of Things (IoT) to deal with the adverse situations. This paper gives information regarding devices, protocol, sensors and systems, which are widely used to monitor farming and specific algorithms are used as optimization methods to achieve the required accuracy. The aim of this work is introduce a system to collect field data at regular and frequent interval and to reduce manual labor with the help of Arduino and Raspberry Pi an IoT based system for successful gathering and processing all data, information transfer, make decisions and provide automation and control function for efficient and cost effective crop yielding. It also performs a comparative study on higher end development board, Arduino and Raspberry pi in Smart Farming. In view of the specs and execution investigation Raspberry Pi certainly raises as a champ with regards to fulfilling most of functional requirements of an IoT systems basic blocks.
