Arduino based Agriculture Weather Monitoring and Security System using GPRSL

Abstract

Smart farming is a way to do agriculture by precisely managing the inputs based on variation of field parameters in order to achieve optimized outputs at minimum disturbances to the environment. It is well known that climate is one of the most imperative field parameters that determine plant growth and its output. This is because each plant is susceptible to certain growing conditions such as air temperature, relative humidity, soil temperature, wind and light, etc. Therefore, it is vital for farmers to understand these climatic conditions of their farms. Many of the problems in managing farms to maximize productions while achieving environmental goals can be solved with appropriate information collected from the weather stations. Weather stations help to understand the interactive influence of climate and management factors on crop yield. The use of real-time weather monitoring system is one of the most effective ways to equip farmers with timely climatic information and knowledge for better crop management.
