AgriSys: A smart and ubiquitous controlled-environment agriculture system
Abstract : With new technological advancement in controlled-environment agriculture systems, the level of productivity has significantly increased. Agriculture systems are now more capable, reliable, and provide enhanced productivity. An agriculture environment can range from a single plant in a house, a backyard garden, a small farm, to a large farming facility. These agricultural automated systems will help in managing and maintain safe environment especially the agricultural areas. In this paper, we propose a smart Agriculture System (AgriSys) that can analyze an agriculture environment and intervene to maintain its adequacy. The system deals with general agriculture challenges, such as, temperature, humidity, pH, and nutrient support. In addition, the system deals with desert-specific challenges, such as, dust, infertile sandy soil, constant wind, very low humidity, and the extreme variations in diurnal and seasonal temperatures. The system interventions are mainly intended to maintain the adequacy of the agriculture environment. For a reduced controller complexity, the adoption of fuzzy control is considered. The system implementation relies on state-of-art computer interfacing tools from National Instruments as programmed under LabVIEW.
? The desert weather is hot, humid, and dusty in the Summer and cold with occasional rain in Winter.
? They are utilizing the resources without thinking how the earth will be like in the future.
? Moreover, the plants are very important and it's complete the life cycle of the earth.
? They also had an external sensor such as soil moisture, pH and leaf wetness.
? This technique is a closed system for growing plants so that their roots stay in a short distance stream of circulating the nutrient solution again.
? Controlled Environment Agriculture is one of the solutions is used to solve this problem.
? Agriculture adds to a noteworthy segment of India's Gross domestic product.
? Two noteworthy issues in present day agriculture are water shortage, scheduling and animals attacks on crops.
? These issues can be settled utilizing agriculture undertaking mechanization, which energizes exactness agriculture.
? There is huge enhancement in technologies which have a significant impact on various fields like agriculture, healthcare etc.
• This paper proposes irrigation system which describes the combination of the wireless sensor network, IOT communication technology and cloud server to accomplish performance of system and data storage.
• The proposed system provides remote monitoring and controlling of irrigation with real time sensing of atmospheric and soil conditions like air temperature, humidity and soil moisture.
• The proposed framework causes Farmer to enhance quality and amount of their farm yield by detecting surrounding temperature and moistness esteems, soil dampness esteem and water level of the tank from the field with no human intercession.
• The framework proposed in these undertaking, plans to prompt the blend of such frameworks with the alluring highlights offered by IOT.
? In, the author designed and implemented their system to to control the performance using Short Message Service(SMS) of cell phones.
? The motors performances depend on turning ON/Off remotely using mobile phone from any brand and also by sends message when it started or done its performance.
? AgriSys is designed to offer low cost, efficient and accurate control options.
? It provides performance comparison guideline for integrating WSN with Cloud Computing to improve performance and to overcome storage and energy constraints of WSN.
? By considering and foreseeing natural conditions, cultivate efficiency can be expanded.
