Future of Agro Industry with Advance Monitoring using Thingspeak

Abstract

In India, an important growing sector is agriculture. The major challenges in agriculture are crop productivity, soil nutrient level, smart irrigation system, crop monitoring, etc. This paper reviews the internet of things (IoT) based smart agriculture system using Thing Speak. The main purpose of this work is to improve the efficiency of the existing. Irrigation system and to reduce the human intervention for the complete automation of the system. The proposed system consists of raspberry pi, various sensors, and a motor driver. Raspberry pi is the main controlling unit that can control the operation of various sensors and actuators. The soil moisture sensor detects the moisture level in the soil and irrigates the crop in a controlled manner. If there is any variation in moisture level then the sensor will update the observed value and store in the cloud. In a smart monitoring system, will update the observed value and store in the cloud. In a smart monitoring system, transfers it to the cloud through raspberry pi. Here Pi is used to provide live video streaming. All this sensor data is stored in a Thing Speak cloud. So that we can view it from a remote location using Thing View Free mobile android application. All this sensor data we can also view on Thing Speak.

Introduction

I. INTRODUCTION

 In India, most of the people living in rural areas make a living from agriculture. Water is a scarce resource in agriculture and its efficient management has been difficult. The role of various technologies in  agriculture  is becoming clear. Research  to improve agricultural products is ongoing, but the results will not be as expected if proper care is not given to the fields and crops. The use of modern technology helps farmers not only  monitor their farm's crops, but also correct them in a timely manner.They can increase the productivity and quality of the crop without needing many workers. In this article, we propose a Raspberry Pi-based smart farm that uses Thing Speak to reduce labor in agriculture. Here we can use IoT to use various wireless sensor nodes to measure various interests. Raspberry PI is a master controller that can send all  data inputs to Thing Speak cloud and take control from Thing Speak service. Thing Speak is an open source IoT platform that allows farmers to view data instantly and remotely.So they can control many things remotely. Telegram also allows farmers to read sensor data from  remote locations. The camera module is also used to monitor the farm continuously. The main purpose of this article is to reduce the complexity of the work of agricultural management and workers. The agricultural sector plays an important role in the world economy.Humanity started farming thousands of years ago and now it has multiplied and contributed to many things in the world. Population growth, environmental protection, climate change, nutrition and quantity demand the latest technology. This provides a new perspective for scientists, engineers, researchers and business owners in agriculture. The role of various technologies in  agriculture  is becoming clear. Research  to improve agricultural products is ongoing, but the results will not be as expected if proper care is not given to the fields and crops.The use of modern technology helps farmers not only  monitor their farm's crops, but also correct them in a timely manner. They can increase the productivity and quality of the crop without needing many workers. We propose a Raspberry Pi-based smart farm that uses Thing Speak to reduce labor in agriculture. Here we can use IoT to use various wireless sensor nodes to measure various interests. Raspberry PI is one of the best devices that can send all  data to Thing Speak cloud and can also be controlled by Thing Speak service. Smart farming  works through sensors.With integrated sensors, motion detectors and IoT devices, farmers can monitor various conditions such as soil moisture, water level, soil moisture, disease testing, soil nutrient analysis  and even water use from anywhere.

University of  Sant Gadge Baba Amravati.This article presents the design and implementation of the Internet of Things for monitoring and controlling businesses using and not using GPRS wireless technology. The main idea of ??business planning is to provide a long-term link change between business and customers. The advantage of building a system is that business applications can be continuously monitored and managed at an early stage. Future work will focus on improving the functions mentioned above  and adding features to build an intelligent security monitoring business.

VII. RESULT

In this paper, it is to reduce the maintenance and labor complexity needed in agriculture. The system uses IoT technology to seamlessly manage water activities.The smart irrigation system has proven to be very useful as it manages irrigation without human intervention. The main application of this project is farmers and gardeners who do not have enough time to water their crops/plants. Moisture sensors and temperature sensors measure soil moisture (moisture content) and temperature at  different locations on the farm. If it detects that the humidity is lower than expected, the humidity sensor sends a signal to the Raspberry Pi, starting the  pump  and watering the plants using the mobile app. Depending on the weather conditions, the readings are recorded and plotted on the map shown in Figure 16.All these sensor values ??are sent to the ThinkSpeak cloud. So  we can get it using the Thing Speak tool on our phone or the Thing View free app. Just install it and enter the ID number to the channel  created by the Thing Speak channel. The sensor output of the Thing View Free application is shown in Figure. Thing View Free and the app allow us to view all the sensor data on our phone from a remote location.Thus, it meets all the goals of our  smart agriculture.

Conclusion

An IoT-based smart farming system using Thing Speak can be a useful tool for farmers as water is not consistent and water is not good for agriculture. We can use this application for irrigation on irregular soils. This system controls the water flow according to real-time data received from the field, and we can remotely monitor the entire system with the help of the Raspberry Pi camera.This agricultural monitoring system provides farmers with reliable and useful information and can take corrective action that has proven effective.
