Improving agricultural production relies on the decisions and actions of farmers and land managers, highlighting the importance of efficient soil monitoring techniques for better resource management and reduced environmental impacts. Despite considerable advancements in soil sensors, their traditional bulky counterparts cause difficulty in widespread adoption and large-scale deployment. Printed electronics emerge as a promising technology, offering flexibility in device design, cost-effectiveness for mass production, and a compact footprint suitable for versatile deployment platforms. This review overviews how printed sensors are used in monitoring soil parameters through electrochemical sensing mechanisms, enabling direct measurement of nutrients, moisture content, pH value, and others. Notably, printed sensors address scalability and cost concerns in fabrication, making them suitable for deployment across large crop fields. Additionally, seamlessly integrating printed sensors with printed antenna units or traditional integrated circuits can facilitate comprehensive functionality for real-time data collection and communication. This real-time information empowers informed decision-making, optimizes resource management, and enhances crop yield. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of recent work related to printed electrochemical soil sensors, ultimately providing insight into future research directions that can enable widespread adoption of precision agriculture technologies.
