Summary: Globally, difficulties in food supply and demand are expected due to problems such as climate change, water shortage, rapid urbanization, reduction of agricultural land, and an aging population. Smart agriculture is based on accurate data on the growth and environmental information of crops and livestock, and monitors the growth environment of crops and livestock anytime, anywhere, and prescribes them in a timely manner, even if less labor, energy, and nutrients are introduced than before. It means agriculture that can greatly improve the quality and quantity of products. In general, smart agriculture can remotely or automatically perform the maintenance and management of the growth environment of crops and livestock by using IoT, big-data, AI, automation systems, and robot technologies in greenhouses, vertical plant farms, open field farms, or livestock barns. Because there are a number of IoT devices applied to smart agriculture, it is very important to know their interaction for interoperability. In this reason, it is necessary to survey existing smart agriculture technologies as well as forthcoming and then based on the survey results, meaningful standardization work items may be developed. This Supplement surveys use cases related to smart agriculture in the perspective of, but not limited to: 1) smart greenhouse, 2) smart open field, 3) smart hydroponics, 4) smart livestock barn, and 5) smart agriculture data service.
