IOT BASED TUNNEL AGRO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Abstract

The main goal of our project is to design automatic irrigation system which is used in tunnel agriculture. If a crop receives more than required amount of water, the effect is harmful and can lead to poor development of plants and cannot grow properly. So, this project focuses on automatic irrigation which is used for the safety of the crop and convenience of the farmers. In this project, the use of automatic irrigation system is to detect the soil moisture value. Not only detect the moisture value but also irrigate the field according to soil moisture value. The system also senses the temperature and humidity of the tunnel. If the moisture level of the soil is below the threshold value, then it triggers the relay and hence the relay turns on the motor to irrigate the field. And similarly, if the moisture level of the soil is above the threshold value, then relay remains off and motor also remains off. The threshold soil moisture value is a predefined value. So, the main aim of this project is to design a low-cost IoT based smart tunnel agro management system which helps the farmers in irrigation and increase their production. In this era of smart technology, we are mainly focusing on agriculture as it plays a vital role in the development of our country’s economy. So, this system is capable of providing an automatic irrigation system to the farmers by saving their valuable time.
