IOT Based Greenhouse Monitoring And Controlling System

Abstract

Focusing on making a smart greenhouse-controlled environment area to grow plants. By using a low cost more efficient programmable module to detect the climatic behavior inside the greenhouse and controlling the parameters according to their crop production need, through various techniques with the use of board ESP8266 Node MCU module. The parameters that need optimization are the water content of the soil, the light intensity coming from the natural or artificial sources, the temperature and humidity of the field area. The design proposes monitoring by soil moisture sensor, LDR sensor, and DHT22(temperature and humidity) sensor; all these sensors collected the data and given to the NodeMCU module, and then after processing the data all the parameters are controlled via water pump, motors, exhaust system, and light system as per the data calculations. With the help of HTTP protocol, the NodeMCU module is connected to the wireless internet connection or through IoT platforms like telegram bot. The collected environmental parameters data sent to smartphones via online mode to the farmers to make the proper overlook on their fields, no matter how far they are just by using the IoT platform. In the field of agriculture and food production, the technology has paced up very quickly and is still furnishing its way, to optimize and achieve maximum plant growth in the field of agriculture. An accurate system would surely bring the change in this world of Android/IDS smartphone applications.
