Abstract: Cloud computing technique is very helpful for the farm management. This technique helps to increase the productivity of the farmers and also provide the protection of their product. It is an emerging way of computing in which applications, data and resources are provided as service to the user in the web. Some practical challenges that are faced while communicating among the farmers are poor knowledge about weather forecast, deficient production information, information about sales and distributions of products. In this paper, agri-cloud framework is developed to improve the cloud computing framework of agriculture data as a service (ADaaS) over the public cloud. This model provides accurate information to the various stakeholders. To improve the agri-cloud framework, a security attribute-based group signature (ABGS) system is used that provides secure data sharing in cloud data centres. In the experimental analysis, the proposed agri-cloud framework achieves 93.5% of availability, the customer confidence level as 94%, and the execution time as 865 sec. So, the proposed agri-cloud framework is better than the existing models such as modified water cloud model, agro-cloud model and agro-mobile model.
