Abstract
Nowadays, automation plays a very important role in everyday life. IoT based poultry farming is useful in situations where remote monitoring and maintenance is needed and this in turn modifies the conventional farm into a modern farm with various automated features. Various factors that affect the health of chicken are monitored at regularly to improve health and growth of chicken. This paper provides an insight on how to setup an IoT based Smart Poultry Farming System using IoT components. The system uses Arduino Nano for interfacing with different sensors to sense the values of specific parameters and ESP8266 Wi-Fi Module to upload the data to the cloud. Various environmental factors are sensed in the poultry management system, which includes temperature, ammonia content in the air and light intensity. The system not just monitors these parameters, but also regulates these them effectively with the help of various automated techniques. The proposed work is useful to farmers who follow conventional farming methods as they could easily access and control the poultry farm remotely using their mobile phones thereby reducing the manual monitoring and increasing the yield of the poultry farm.
Highlights
India is an agriculture rich country and people here grow various crops and raise animals which are of much use to the people
Internet of Things (IoT) Based Smart Poultry Farming is one of the solutions that can be adopted in poultry farming
This sensor contains 3 pins and gives analog output. This can sense ammonia, ammonium oxide, alcohol, benzene, carbon dioxide and smoke. Since this sensor is highly sensitive to ammonia, it is used in the proposed work
Summary
India is an agriculture rich country and people here grow various crops and raise animals which are of much use to the people. As the technology is available at a very low budget it is economically feasible to deploy in almost all poultry farms without financial overhead. It helps the farmers in real time controlling and monitoring of environmental aware context parameters such as temperature, air quality and light intensity by using corresponding regulating devices like heaters, exhaust fans, and lights. This smart system is used to remotely control the farm from any location which reduces the amount of time and manual work consumed. The system will improve productivity and quality of chickens in poultry farming by providing healthy and necessary environment for its growth
