Abstract
Vietnam has a long history and tradition of doing agriculture. Its economics has been dominated by the agriculture sector. However, the current agriculture practices in Vietnam are still rudimentary by using hand-operated and experience-based instead of scientific system. The farmers have faced of the challenges of weather, people performance, and many risks including water resources, soil standard, and etc. From the vision of changing the awareness of doing agriculture, Tri Nguyen founded MimosaTek to provide the precision irrigation solution toward successful and sustainable cultivation. By applying IoT on farming, the organization aims to form a strong foundation for promoting farming activities in Vietnam.
