Description
Summary:Agriculture plays an indispensable role in developing a nation, and water is the primary resource for agriculture. So, using IoT, properly utilizing adequate water in the irrigation process is possible. Besides, most farmers does not use or less use of modern farming equipment. They follow some primitive cultivation methods. Despite no shortage of efficient equipment and machinery, there is little use of modern equipment as most farmers don’t have lands huge enough to use advanced instruments, and heavy machinery. To act effectively if the possibility of the problems occurs. This study proposed farming plantation and agriculture system by IoT technology. The aim of this study is divided into two parts. The first part is hardware development that consists of 2 sensors which are capacitive soil moisture sensors, humidity temperature sensors that will activate water pump to irrigate soil by incorporating with Nodemcu ESP8266 as the main controller. The second part is to display the information about the soil moisture, soil temperature and water level using OLED display. Here, this system will help the plantation monitoring to be more effective to the farmers and at the same time can improve crop yields.
