Smart Green House for Controlling & Monitoring Temperature, Soil & Humidity Using IOT

Abstract

Agricultural economics plays a vital role in the economics sector of development as because large portion of a country’s population depends on agriculture sector. Higher agricultural productivity also increases the income of the rural population, raising demand for industrial output. Almost 70 percent of the India’s population depends on the agriculture sector. Agricultural development makes a critical contribution to overall economic growth in many developing countries. As farmers’ incomes rise, so does their demand both for farm inputs and services, and for non-farm goods. Increased agricultural production also leads to increased demand for processing facilities. There are many factors, which slow this development. So Smart farming is a management concept using modern technology to increase the quantity and quality of agricultural products. Today’s agriculture routinely uses sophisticated technologies such as robots, temperature and moisture sensors, aerial images, and GPS technology. These advanced devices and precision agriculture and robotic systems allow businesses to be more profitable, efficient, safer, and more environmentally friendly. The main objective of this paper is to design a smartphone controlled green house with advanced monitoring system for controlling various parameters like temperature control, sob moisture & humidity control of any agricultural process. The prototype presented in this paper can monitor temperature, soil and humidity through sensors, IOT & ISP.
