The emergence of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has opened new avenues for research in the agricultural and farming sectors. In recent years, WSNs have found extensive use in diverse agricultural applications. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the potential applications of WSNs, alongside the challenges and issues associated with their deployment for enhanced farming practices. To address specific needs, the study examines the devices, sensors, and communication technologies integral to WSNs in agricultural contexts. Various case studies are presented to explore existing solutions documented in the literature, categorized based on design and implementation parameters. The paper also surveys WSN deployments for farming applications within both Indian and global contexts, highlighting the advantages and limitations of these solutions. Furthermore, it identifies areas for improvement and proposes future research directions, leveraging advanced technologies to address prevailing challenges.
