IoT based Multipurpose Agricultural Robot

In this research, a multipurpose agricultural robot is proposed to increase crop productivity and to ease the workload of farmers. The growth rate of agricultural output is gradually declining in the recent years due to labour scarcity, water shortage, expenses etc. Manual labour methodology is ineffective in farming and time consuming. These problems in agriculture led to propose an automated design which can perform most of the farming activities. The main objectives are seed sowing, spraying pesticides to remove pests, monitoring water moisture content and temperature of soil through Thing Speak, enabling farmers to remotely observe and manage agricultural land in real-time by incorporating ESP32 camera. By using this, farmers can increase the crop yield by taking precautionary measures at the right time. Robot will reduce the workload of farmers and helps to increase their productivity and profit by performing all the above-mentioned features.
