Abstract: Agriculture can be considered as one main economic field in Sri Lanka, also it's same for the other countries in the world. As with the increase of the population, the demand of the agriculture production is also increasing. Agriculture field face numerous difficulties, among them Agriculture security is the main issue affecting to it now a days. The main objective in this research paper is to introduce sophisticated methods to get accurate decisions combine with the modern technology to increase the security in agriculture areas and to enhance the agricultural productivity. Also, by using Internet of Things and develop the gadgets to detect the information related in the agricultural areas and give the efficient and effective solutions for smart security management in agriculture.

Abstract: In this paper, eggshell waste from a pullulating chick hatched eggs farm was used to study the effect of substituted mortar mixing water by eggshell powder solution (ESPS). ESPS were made by dissolving 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30% and 40% by weight of eggshell Concentrations in water by boiling. The microstructure and chemical composition were displayed. The physical and mechanical properties of ESPS cement mortar were experimentally studied at 2, 7 and 28 days of curing. X-Ray Diffraction patterns for eggshell powder displayed that the major component in eggshell powder is calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in calcite form. The study showed that both workability and density were decreased with the increasing of ESPS concentration. The results indicated an improvement in both compressive and flexural strengths at 10% inclusion ESPS concentration.
