ABSTRACT
Farming has been one of man's primary occupations since the start of civilization, and it still requires physical labor in many circumstances today. There are still certain big industries in our country that have not completely accepted or exploited automation, despite the fact that everything in our society can be handled and done automatically. Other issues with farming, such as maintaining the right temperature, providing advanced plants with the right amount of light, and preventing unauthorized entrance into farming areas, call for technical solutions. On the other hand, a timely and adequate supply of power is the most crucial factor for agriculture. In addition to decreasing efficiency, a very unpredictable power supply with frequent power outages has also posed issues for farmers, who spend their time ensuring that electricity is available, since without it their job cannot begin. Automating farming entails keeping an eye on and managing the climatic factors that either directly or indirectly influence plant development and, in turn, its output. In the present work, we will monitor factors in a greenhouse such as temperature, humidity, unwanted occupancy, light intensity, pressure, rainfall detection, soil moisture, and water management. The data will be displayed and processed using a Blynk server with original hardware circuits on a permanent printed circuit board (PCB). Using node microcontroller unit (MCU) and IoT technologies, we will present and evaluate the data. Even when there is no power source, the system with solar panels offers power backup.
