IOT BASED SMART GREENHOUSE EFFECT MONITORING AND AUTOMATION SYSTEM

Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) is about extending the power of the internet beyond computers and smartphones to a whole range of other things, processes, and the environment. Those "connected" things are used to gather information, send information back, or both. IoT helps in agriculture by reducing the hard work in activities and provides significant knowledge for doing smart agriculture. In coriander farming, farmers are facing a lot of challenges regarding the crop quality and proper harvest management due to a lack of knowledge about water, temperature and humidity monitoring. This project uses IoT which helps to monitor the coriander plant for proper growth. Furthermore, farmers get a informations on crop parameters like humidity, temperature, pH of the soil, crop height, moisture which will further help to enhance the profit margin. This project gives a variety of knowledge about IoT technology and its implementation in various agriculture fields and environments. It also provides information on different types of systems, which are based on various concepts like Internet, algorithms etc. along with different types of sensors such as DHT11 sensor, soil moisture sensor.
