Monitoring System IoT-Broiler Chicken Cage Effectiveness of Seeing Reactions from Chickens

Abstract

Broilers are an excellent source of protein and are needed in the productive age population. From the central statistics data in 2019, the number of broiler populations in Indonesia reached 3.15 billion heads. To maximize production and reduce production efficiency, artificial intelligent application innovations are carried out for temperature, humidity, and gas control in broiler chicken coops. Internet of Things helps farmers make efficient use of human resources to adjust the temperature and humidity of the cage. The microcontroller's primary device uses a wifi-embedded ESP32 to be able to transmit data to the server. To read the environmental conditions of the cell, use DHT11 for temperature and MQ2 for gas. The results of the system's application were tested using two models, namely, testing the sensor reading value compared to the weight on the Thermo hygrometer and observation of the reaction of chickens in the cage. The test results were conducted by comparing the sensor's value with Thermo hygrometer difference can be tolerated and normal chicken reaction because the temperature in the enclosure is well maintained.
