Abstract

In recent years, plants have been grown without soil using a technique called hydroponics by directly feeding them the ideal amount of nutrients from the earth in water. Plants grown by using the hydroponic technique usually yield more, require less space, and conserve soil and water. The main aim of our work is to save lots of water, reduce pesticide use and factors that affect land quality, and improve crop quality. The automated hydroponics system based on the Internet of things (IoT) is developed to facilitate cultivation and the system can regulate and govern important environmental factors that affect plant growth. An efficient technique to grow plants is with an automated Internet of things-based hydroponics system for cultivating, regulating, and governing important environmental factors that influence plant growth. We have developed a system that can monitor and control complete hydroponic farming from anywhere using IoT via the web, therefore parameters like pH level, light intensity, electrical conductivity, water level, temperature, and room humidity parameters are often viewed in real-time.
