Smart city originated from the field of media, which refers to the use of various information technologies or innovative concepts to connect and integrate urban systems and services. It improves the efficiency of resource utilization, optimizes urban management and services, and improves the quality of life of citizens. A smart city is a new generation of information integration technologies using the internet of things, cloud computing, big data, and spatial geographic information integration. It is a new theory and new model to promote urban planning, construction, management, and service intelligence. The IoT technology originated from the third technological revolution. It refers to the connection of objects to the network through the information sensor equipment according to the agreed protocol. It communicates and circulates information through the information dissemination medium during the connection process to realize intelligent identification, tracking, supervision, and other functions. The internet of things is the internet where everything is connected. It is an extension and expansion of the internet based on the network. It is a huge network formed by combining various information sensing devices with the internet. In fact, people, machines, and things are interconnected at any time and at any place. Agricultural internet of things refers to the internet of things that participates in automatic control through various instruments and equipment as parameters of automatic control. Its essence is to use RFID, wireless data communication, and other technologies to construct an “internet of things” covering everything in the world on the basis of the computer internet. It realizes the automatic identification of items and the interconnection and sharing of information through the computer internet. This study aims to study the application of the agricultural internet of things in the construction of regional smart cities. It expects to promote the development of modern agriculture by improving the level of agricultural management with the help of smart city and internet of things technology. Based on the B/S system model, this study uses the related technologies of the internet of things to build a smart agriculture platform. By comparing the data in the database and entering the smart agriculture platform to monitor the data, it can achieve efficient and convenient management. It proposes the framework structure and system characteristics of the facility agricultural internet of things technology system. It also investigates and analyzes related products according to the system framework structure, and summarizes the current status of product development and the functions that can be achieved. According to the survey, 56 people believed that there was no after-sale service in the whole survey process. It accounts for 32.5% of the total surveyed persons, indicating the lack of local modern agricultural management. Thirty-one people are willing to buy agricultural products online, accounting for 18% of the total surveyed, indicating that the development of local online shopping is relatively backward.
