Solar Power-Based Smart Greenhouse

Abstract

Despite huge advances in technology, such as improved irrigation systems and genetically modified organisms, weather still plays the chief role in agriculture and as well the soil quality. Today, smart technology and efficiency are practically synonymous. By integrating average tasks like watering plants, turning lights on/off, and managing humidity in a smart greenhouse, people can analyze the efficiency of their processes and then also regulate them to increase productivity. Greenhouses have experienced many transformations and still are evolving, but their basic purpose remains the same. They create microclimate to enable crop growers to be active all year round. The most significant change in the greenhouse has been the introduction of automation. The purpose is to create such a greenhouse which is suitable to the environment of any region especially cold and arid regions and create an efficient system for maximum productivity with ease. These greenhouses can control the prime factors that influence crop yields, such as temperature, moisture, light exposure, ventilation, and more to create the most suitable climate for growing a plant according to the cultivator with the aid of solar energy.
