Abstract

A vast majority of the Indian population depend on agriculture as their primary occupation. Producingthe maximum amount of crops is an important thing in our country. In order to get plant growth, it ishighly crucial to exactly check the nutrient level in the soil mix. The given system of IoT-enabled soilchecking measures and observes the different soil factors. This system lessens the chances of soildegradation and helps to maintain crop’s health. We have made use of multiple sensors like pH, soilmoisture to monitor temperature, humidity, soil moisture, and soil pH and some color sensors fornutrients of the soil. The information is checked by the sensors, stored in the cloud and analyzed tosuggest the growth of the suitable plant. A full-fledged digital environment is made, giving data aboutthe pesticide(s) needed for the plants. The purpose of this project is to make a steadfast system throughcreating an aquaponics system using the concept of Internet of Things. By creating an automatedaquaponic system with the use of interface sensors with the Arduino, we can monitor the fish feedintervals, supply of water to plants at periodic intervals.
