section
After completion of the above study it can be
stated that in this research the researcher has
primarily focused on the water management
process in the agriculture industry as water
management is one of the major function in
the agriculture industry that significantly
impacts the effectiveness of the operations of
the nominated field.
Making allowance to this aspect it is noticed
that in this paper the author has conducted the
investigation by using several mathematical
modelling with the purpose to determine how
the multi-intelligent control system (MICS)

industry.
After successfully analysing the nominated
study it can be stated that this research is very
much valuable for me as this will help to
enhance the services of the agriculture
industry and that is similar to the objective of
my approached project which has proposed to
implement IoT into agriculture industry for
better controlling and monitoring.
