Abstract: The present invention relates to an integrated precision-agriculture monitoring and advisory system employing Internet of Things sensors, multi-constellation Global Navigation Satellite System positioning and machine-learning analysis. A plurality of field monitoring units measure air temperature, air humidity, soil temperature, soil pH, soil moisture, soil concentration and nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium levels at respective agricultural micro-zones. A fixed GNSS base station and associated rover receivers acquire raw satellite observations, which are processed using precise point positioning and post-processed kinematic positioning to determine centimetre-level coordinates of the monitoring units. Sensor measurements are filtered, normalised, time-stamped and associated with the determined coordinates before transmission to a cloud data integration layer. A machine-learning engine analyses spatial and temporal variations in the measurements to identify moisture imbalance, nutrient deficiency, environmental stress, disease risk or pest risk. The system generates georeferenced crop-specific advisories, agricultural-input recommendations and field- operation tasks and transmits the same to farmer or service-operator terminals through a web or mobile interface.
