IoT Based Intelligent Farming System
A system to control and provide security to fields and send information to farmer remotely about their fields and crops on mobile and webservers that helps farmers to increase the quantity of crops.
The problem IoT Based Intelligent Farming System solves
It solves the problem of remotely controlling and monitoring the fields.
It solves the problem by providing all the necessary information about the fields to farmers remotely by providing a easy Adafruit io interface which can provide necessary details like soil temperature ,soil moisture ,air temperature and humidity and manually controlling of equipments.
It also provides automatic switching of lights(according to day and night) and water motor pump(according to soil moisture level).
It contains a laser security system which provides security to the fields from stray animals by producing a alarming sound so that the animals fear and ran away from fields.
It also saves water resources by providing automatic drip irrigation.
This project works with least resources and manpower and one person can control the field.
It used MQTT(message queying telemetry transport)messaging protocol which requires very less bandwidth,light and efficient.
It works on solar energy so no tension of electricity-cut.
hence, It is the best way to help our farmers as our project increase the productivity of crops so that the demands of people can be fulfill and farmers can also earn profit due to high productivity of crops.
Challenges we ran into
- Lack of hardware such as sensors(DHT11 sensor,DS18B20,SOIL MOISTURE SENSOR ),microcontroller(NODE MCU).
We get over by using virtual making of circuit on ciruito.io and testing over there and making it a succesful run. - Somtimes we had to face problems of network connectivity but however we had able to find the way to come out of this situation and the solution was using MQTT which can work on low-bandwidth also and successfully able to execute our project and idea.
