India stands among the world's five biggest producers, accounting for more than 80% of agriculture products. This paper discusses detailed case study of successful vertical farming, necessary parameters for farm set up like roof tops that can produce approximately 1-acre land of food produce and residence related agriculture in metropolitan areas. Using Intelligent of Things, a producer can control sensors, dashboard, graphical interface that are used to monitor growth and health of plants, push and retrieve data using AWS green grass cloud service.
