This comprehensive review examines thirty-nine data loggers andtheir associated literature, systematically critiquing their design andimplementation. The integration of data loggers in farm monitoring provescost-effective, enabling the simultaneous monitoring of multiple parameterswithout human intervention. The accrued data, when logged over time,contributes to more accurate weather predictions, empowering farmers tostrategically plan for upcoming seasons. However, the review reveals aprevalent issue among existing data loggers: many cannot read and recordvarious weather parameters concurrently, coupled with insufficient storagecapacity. This limitation hinders their suitability for prolonged, unattendeddata storage. Additionally, a significant number of the reviewed data loggerslack long-range wireless data transmission capabilities, restricting effectiveweather monitoring from a distance. The findings underscore the need forresearchers to focus on developing advanced long-range data logger systemswith enhanced memory storage capacities to address these identifiedshortcomings.
