Smart and Automated Agricultural Management System Using IoT

Abstract

Nowadays, one can observe the arrival of several mechanical techniques in the agricultural sector. To make the technology accessible to everyone at an affordable cost and to diminish workload for farmers by making it easier to control and understandable, there should be the presence of new technology and it is IoT, which is elaborated as Internet of Things. Usually, Internet of Things is defined as the number of gadgets are connected through wireless networks such as Wi-Fi, SIM networks, etc. IoT technology in the agricultural sector might create wonders by reducing the burden for farmers in a great way. Using IoT (Internet of Things), modern wireless devices can be constructed at an affordable cost to farmers across the country. Therefore, farmers could gain high productivity as the tasks are getting easier as well as being completed within a short period. This paper centers around the job of the Internet of Things in agribusiness that prompts brilliant cultivating. The modern technology named IoT not only shows the impact in the agricultural field but also provides several functionalities in other fields. The point of this undertaking is to propose IOT based Smart and Automated Agricultural Management System that records the data of moisture, temperature, humidity, heat index, and water level. In Smart and Automated Agricultural Management System, soil moisture sensor, DHT11 sensor, water-level sensor, and Arduino technology are utilized to simplify tasks by controlling the parameters of crop moisture content, environmental temperatures at appropriate times through the mobile application called Blynk with secured working.
