Abstract :
One of the major problems in present day agriculture is low productivity. To improve the output of the field, it is of utmost importance that the farmer not only has the items required but also the knowledge to implement them effectively. A viable solution is the FAST (Farm Ambience Sensing Tool) - a multi-sensor tool which detects the conditions of the agricultural area and notifies the farmer.
