Multi Dimensional Hydrophonic Farming

Abstract

Using hydroponics, plants or the crops can be grown without any need of soil at all. Instead, producers employ water to provide the dissolved nutrients and minerals that plants need. The society applauds this strategy since it addresses the issue of a lack of productive land. In this work, we create a prototype using the Internet of Things (IoTs) named Hydrostorms. The IoT sensors use the Cloud to send environmental data from the farm's smartphone app over the network. The Hydrostorms app gives farmers access to a wealth of information about their hydroponics, including the GPS coordinates of the farmer's present location, a detailed profile of each hydroponic, including information about its nutritional requirements, fertilization schedule, ambient conditions (such as temperature, humidity, etc.), historical information from earlier data collection, and warnings of any adjustments or unusual values. The prototype's initial evaluation findings indicate a high degree of farmer acceptability (80.5%), this might convince more of them to use this ground-breaking agricultural technique.
