Abstract

This project is proposed to build an automatic crop management system using ESP32. The idea to develop this prototype was because of the problems faced by many individuals who love farming, and there is no time to take care of the crop regularly. This matter is raised because the plant needs careful care to ensure that the plant is always healthy. Apart from this, this can also implement the project on a large scale, such as farm care which can help farmers reduce labor costs. That is why the idea arose to develop this automated system. The first objective is to build a prototype of the project. Within this system, there are several systems used to build a complete system. The first system is to control the irrigation system, where the plants will be watered periodically according to the rate of soil moisture or according to a set time to water the plants. The second system is the humidity control system, where the plant will be placed indoors and can cause fungus to form on the plant to tone a vent hole that can be opened and closed automatically. This system uses the Internet of Things (IoT) to link the data to the smartphone application. We can monitor all the data taken by the sensor to ensure that the system is running well, as we need to ensure the plant is in good condition. Overall, From this project it can be concluded that the use of greenhouses can reduce the observation of soil moisture and ambient temperature manually by 40%. For the conclusion, this Smart Garden can be run smoothly and give a excellent result for the plant growth but still need some improvement.
