Simplex Algorithm support system for Optimization of crop yield monitoring system using Internet of Things (IOT)

International audience The challenges facing the enhancing production of agricultural sectors in spite of endowed natural resources for necessary crop production are key issues to crop yield. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) plays a central role in improving the lives of the populace in the rural areas using a computer based agro information system. The simplex algorithm support for optimization crop yield monitoring of Internet of Things in improving the current practice in agriculture. An intelligent system that will help farmers to perform their duty automatically without much manual inspection was created. The system suggest some agro information that are relevant to the crop like varieties and soil types, planting time, maturity time, temperature, distance between crops, pest, disease, pest/disease control measure , rainfall, amount of sunshine, quantity and type of fertilizer to mention but few with its geographic information system. The application will help famers to have increase productivity and the efficiency of the crop yield. The simplex algorithm using IOT will optimize the level of crop yield in the agricultural sector of Nigeria.
