Abstract

With a special focus on the now widespread Internet of Things (IoT) technology, it offers a convenient solution for smart agriculture. This paper will introduce a smart greenhouse monitoring and control data logger system as part of a smart farm. The system is based on: a group of built-in sensors, a microcontroller with a peripheral interface (PIC) as a core and a server system and a wireless Internet using the Global System of Mobile Telecommunications (GSM) module with General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) as a communication protocol. It is possible to implement a smart agricultural service, in which the realized smart data logger system could be implemented, which enables automatic control of the greenhouse at the farm.

Highlights

  • Greenhouse planting conditions differ from outdoor growing conditions, which can have its advantages and disadvantages

  • The human factor is most often prone to errors and the inability to wash and control all parameters. This problem is reflected in the morning when it is necessary to ventilate the greenhouse, and inside the greenhouse, the humidity is above 85% and the temperature difference is high, so when opening the greenhouse plants experience temperature shocks, which adversely affect the plant as well as the fruit itself

  • The microclimatic parameters were measured with a prototype of a smart agricultural system for 9 days, in Nis, Serbia

Summary

Introduction

Greenhouse planting conditions differ from outdoor growing conditions, which can have its advantages and disadvantages. As greenhouses reduce a large percentage of external influences, it is necessary to monitor and control in some way the parameters that can adversely affect the yield and cultivation of plantations in greenhouses, a part of which is listed. The human factor is most often prone to errors and the inability to wash and control all parameters. This problem is reflected in the morning when it is necessary to ventilate the greenhouse, and inside the greenhouse, the humidity is above 85% and the temperature difference is high (the temperature inside the greenhouse is much higher than the outside temperature), so when opening the greenhouse plants experience temperature shocks, which adversely affect the plant as well as the fruit itself
