Abstract
MIT D-Lab, in partnership with USAID, the Comprehensive Initiative on Technology Evaluation (CITE) at MIT, and Feed the Future, conducted an evaluation of the current state of IoT technology in smallholder agriculture in Global Food Security Strategy (GFSS) countries. The goal of this research is to better understand challenges and the landscape of IoT for agriculture in developing countries, identify potential solutions, and highlight some examples of IoT implementation on smallholder farms. The report identifies challenges and opportunities and provides recommendations directed towards donors and implementers.
