Abstract

This research focuses on the design and implementation of a rainfall monitoring system for chili pepper farms using Internet of Things (IoT) technology. The rainfall monitoring system consists of a transmitter system, a receiver system, the Thingspeak platform as a database, and a weather station application that can be accessed via a mobile device. The weather station application is built using the MIT App Inventor platform. In the testing phase, the system successfully collected data from two sensors used, namely the rainfall intensity sensor and the raindrop sensor. The test results showed that the data obtained from the rainfall intensity sensor was 0.25 inches and the raindrop sensor was 1. This result shows that there was no rain during the test. This rain intensity and raindrop data can provide farmers with an overview of the weather conditions in the chili pepper farm. So, with this rainfall monitoring system, farmers can monitor the condition of their agricultural land in real-time. The collected data can help farmers to care for chili pepper plants more effectively and adapt to environmental changes. In addition, this system is expected to increase the productivity of chili pepper farming because it uses a more precise and responsive approach to changes in environmental conditions on the chili pepper farm.
