An Efficient Smart Agriculture Monitor System Using IoT
摘要
In today’s tech scenario maximum farmers are practicing unconventional farming which needs hard work, in detail if say it is physical practicing. Especially the day to day work if talk about that watering the crop manually without measuring the temperature or having the knowledge of soil moisture in the field. As this is practiced from generation to generation, instead of any gain they are losing manpower, water loss which leads to low production and lower the income of farmer. The development of smart agriculture which is built, gives the surety about the soil’s water level and fertility outcome by using several sensors. The sensors which are included is temperature sensors, soil moisture sensors and humidity sensors. The coordinated work with these sensors integrated with IoT and raspberry pi will make it convenient and limits the excessive work of the farmers. The integrated sensor will be placed on the water tank and interconnected with pump source, will give alert notification to the farmer phone about the need of water supply. Most the problems are related to electricity is there this issue can be resolved by connecting the sensors with power source and integrating it with cloud so that every controls of the farm will be in the fingertips of farmers. Similarly for soil moisture sensors in case of water requirement by the soil will be directly reach to users phone. So they can perform irrigation. Cattles responsibility is there, farmers owns livestock in the time of grazing, it may lost or distracted from the pathway. Collar tracker with map support will be beneficial at that time. Livestock abnormal behaviors can be detected, there feeding and water tank refilling can be done by just one click. Cows milk thickness health issue and certain things can be managed. Not only limited to cow but for other livestocks. Climate and weather conditions will be directly updated on the applications. Data analytics support for managing expenses. Graph guidance for the soil moisture, temperature and irrigation support. Water tank percentage filled, air composition whether drop irrigation or sprinkler irrigation needed, temperature, humidity cattles live location on custom based maps will be displayed on the dashboard. Application usage guidance and query support will be there for smooth use of application.
