The advent of Internet of Things (IoT) technology has revolutionized the agricultural industry, particularly in the realm of fruits and vegetables quality monitoring. This literature survey delves into the innovative integration of IoT and billing systems to ensure the quality and freshness of agricultural produce. The paper focuses on an automated system designed to streamline the monitoring process, employing a methane gas sensor as a pivotal component. The sensor detects gases emitted by fruits and vegetables, specifically targeting methane levels as indicators of ripeness or decay. Upon surpassing a predetermined threshold, the system initiates the segregation of deteriorated produce, ensuring only high-quality items proceed further along the conveyor belt. The paper elucidates the system's workflow, encompassing gas sensing, sorting, weighing, and real-time inventory updates through cloud-based technology. Additionally, the study emphasizes the practical implications of this technology in empowering stakeholders with accurate information for informed decision-making. This survey not only underscores the current state of IoT-driven quality monitoring in agriculture but also explores its potential for future advancements and widespread application in optimizing produce quality, reducing wastage, and enhancing supply chain efficiency.
