Smart Agriculture Management Using IoT

- In today’s world agriculture plays a vital role. Soil nutrition is an important factor in agriculture. Hence it is necessary to maintain the soil contents.Our project mainly based on sensors which are dipped in the soil to identify the type of nutrient present in the soil hence it is easy for the farmers to find the type of plant that can grow in that soil. These sensors are also used to identify the temperature and moisture present in the soil with the help of internet. Mineral sensors, temperature and moisture sensors are used for this purpose. The output of the sensors is connected to the arduino and its output is connected to the wifi module through the Ethernet shield and the nutrient content of the soil is obtained. These sensors are also fitted on the cultivator sweeps of the tractor so that these sensors can be deeply inserted inside the soil to find the nutrient content of the soil. The main objective of our project is to reduce the risk of the farmers and it is the easy way of testing the nutrient content in the soil. The structure of this project is simple. Thus this equipment produces a great deal in the field of agriculture making farmers simply dependent on themselves.

INTRODUCTION:
Soil is the most important renewable natural resources. It is the medium of plant growth and supports various types of living organisms on the earth. Soil fertility refers to the amount of nutrients in the soil, which is efficient to support plant growth. The nutrients present in the soil are sulphur, chlorine, copper, manganese, boron, iron, cobalt, zinc, potassium, phosphorous, nitrogen etc. They are required for the plant growth. By using the mineral sensors it is able to identify the nutrient present in the soil.

COMPONENTS USED:
 power supply and regulator
 a set of mineral sensors
 temperature and moisture sensor
 arduino controller
 Ethernet shield
 wi-fi module

WORKING:
 The sensing inputs determine the values of the
soil.
 These values are calibrated with the help of
microcontroller.
 By means of Ethernet shield the arduino board is
connected to the internet.
 Local devices can be connected by using local IP
with the help of wifi modem.

IMPLEMENTATION:
The project can be implemented in the tractor. if we implemented means no need of transformer to step down voltage .and we can use supply from battery itself for displaying the result in tractor ,by using a small LCD display so that the working people in farm can be also identify what type of plant is suitable for the land.

ADVANTAGES:
 Low cost
 Easy way of testing
 Simpler in structure
 Risk of farmers is reduced

CONCLUSION:

Today India ranks second in the world in farm output and 64% of cultivated land depends on monsoons. Irrigation accounts for 55-75% of water usage in India. To meet the needs of our population growth the agriculture should gets developed. IOT is now mainly focusing on agriculture as it plays vital role in the development of country’s economy. Thus this equipment produces a great deal in the field of agriculture making farmers simply dependent on themselves and to complete their work in the short period of time with high profit. Thus it leads to the development of our Indian economy too.
