sustainable agriculture

 I n this project, we are going to build a   Smart Farming System using IoT . The objective of this project is to offer assistance to farmers in getting Live Data (Temperature, Humidity, Soil Moisture, Soil Temperature) for efficient environment monitoring which will enable them to increase their overall yield and quality of products. This smart agriculture using IoT system powered by NodeMCU consists of a DHT11 sensor, Moisture sensor, DS18B20 Sensor Probe, LDR, Water Pump, and 12V led strip. When the IoT-based agriculture monitoring system starts, it checks the Soil moisture, temperature, humidity, and soil temperature. It then sends this data to the IoT cloud for live monitoring. If the soil moisture goes below a certain level, it automatically starts the water pump. We previously build   Automatic Plant Irrigation System  which sends alerts on mobile but doesn’t monitor other parameters. Apart from this,  Rain alarm  and  soil moistu...

  A Detailed Guide Aquaponic Farming in India For those who consider Aquaponic farming a recent trend, I am sorry to say but you are wrong. The aquaponic farming concept can be traced back to the Aztec Indians who grew plants on the surface of the rafts above the lake. The concept was very simple. The roots of the plant will get nutrients from the fish waste in the pond, in return the plants will purify the water making it suitable for fish to reside. This was the complete symbiotic relationship between plants and aquatic life. Don’t worry if you didn’t understand the concept. In this article, we will look at aquaponic farming in depth. We will also look at how to start aquaponics at home as well as making it a commercial project. So read till the end to know about this beautiful concept of farming. What is Aquaponic Farming? Let us understand the concept behind aquaponic farming. The word Aquaponic can be segregated into Aquaculture and Hydroponics. Before understanding aquaponics...
