Automated System for Farming with Hydroponic Style

Hydroponics farming becomes more intelligent and seen to be the future of agriculture. Farms with an automated system, produces higher quality of crops by sensing its controlling parameters. This article presents an automated system for farming of hydroponic style. Objective is to atomize the crop monitoring during growth process using the network of sensors and actuators. This network helps in monitoring and control of various physical events at farms such as water level, pH, electrical conductivity, water temperature, and relative humidity. These physical events are controlled by providing decisions through messaging system. From the experimental results, it is observed that, the proposed system shows minimum fluctuations in sensor values which helps in automatic control. This work mainly gathers data about ecological elements from remote sensors and using remote conventions send it to the database. A system results in appropriate decisions about various nutrient values and inform to the farmer through messaging system. A prototype is developed which results in sending accurate decisions to the end-users.
