Smart Farming

Abstract

Abstract: Agriculture is the broadest economic sector and plays an important role in the overall economic development of nation. Technological advancements in the arena of agriculture will ascertain to increase competence of certain farming activities. Internet of Things (IoT) technology has brought revolution to each and every field of common man’s life by making everything smart and intelligent. IoT refers to a network of things which make a self-configuring network. The development of Intelligent Smart Farming IoT based devices is day by day turning the face of agriculture production by not only enhancing it but also making it cost-effective. Here we are using Internet of things technologies in Mushroom farming Mushrooms are classified as vegetables in the food world but they are actually fungi. Although they are not vegetables. Mushrooms provide several important nutrients and they have a very important part in the food market. This project mainly focuses of the monitoring of the mushroom farms. The sensors are placed at specific regions of the farm. Which will monitor the status. The control unit is setup with some basic parameters such as temperature. Humidity and gas content that is required for the cultivation when the threshold varies the control unit will trigger the actuators. An intelligent app is designed to check the status of the farm by the user which will be connected with the control unit through server. The app will be a used by the cultivator. Where in the app the status of the farm will be displayed. Once the actuators are triggered the users will be notified with the help of app notification.
