Greenhouse Monitoring and Control System with an Arduino System

Agriculture is a major part of our lives as human beings. A lot of research has been carried out in order to be able to develop a monitored and controlled greenhouse system/environment that will help in solving the main problems relating to agriculture which is to enable the increase in the crops being cultivated all year round in the comfort of a small space like the home, and also to reduce human interaction in a small scale greenhouse environment. So accordingly, an automated greenhouse monitoring and control system was proposed for the sole purpose stated above. The methodology used in building the greenhouse monitoring and control system is a wired connection. The system was built using a number of connection wires, sensors, LCD, a cooling system, a power bank, LEDs, LDRs, Arduino board among a few other components. The result obtained was a fully functioning system that was set to monitor the greenhouse environment.
