与物联网相关的技术在粮食和农业领域具有巨大的应用潜力，特别是考虑到该部门面临的社会和环境挑战。从农场到餐桌，物联网技术可以改变这个行业，促进食品安全，减少农业投入和食物浪费。更大程度地采用这些技术的一个重要步骤将是在整个供应链中执行基于物联网的大规模试点（LSP）。本文概述了在该领域中部署物联网LSP必须考虑的挑战和限制。对部门和技术挑战进行了说明，以确定一套技术和农业食品要求。简要介绍了基于系统方法的体系结构，强调了解决该行业面临的互操作性挑战的重要性，并详细说明了新业务模式、安全性、隐私和数据治理的要求。最终提供了四个农业食品领域（乳制品，水果，耕地，肉类和蔬菜供应链）的试点设计所涉及的技术和解决方案的描述。总之，要使物联网在这一领域取得成功，需要对文化进行重大变革。
The technologies associated with the Internet of Things have great potential for application in the domain of food and agriculture, especially in view of the societal and environmental challenges faced by this sector. From farm to fork, IoT technologies could transform the sector, contributing to food safety, and the reduction of agricultural inputs and food waste. A major step toward greater uptake of these technologies will be the execution of IoT-based large-scale pilots (LSPs) in the entire supply chain. This article outlines the challenges and constraints that an LSP deployment of IoT in this domain must consider. Sectoral and technological challenges are described in order to identify a set of technological and agrifood requirements. An architecture based on a system of systems approach is briefly presented, the importance of addressing the interoperability challenges faced by this sector is highlighted, and we elaborate on requirements for new business models, security, privacy, and data governance. A description of the technologies and solutions involved in designing pilots for four agrifood domains (dairy, fruit, arable, meat and vegetable supply chain) is eventually provided. In conclusion, it is noted that for IoT to be successful in this domain, a significant change of culture is needed.
