Abstract

The poultry industry faces challenges in maintaining optimal environmental conditions, impacting animal welfare and productivity. This project addresses these issues through the development of an IoT-based device for monitoring and controlling chicken coops, powered by a photovoltaic (PV) solar system. The device, built with an ESP32 microcontroller and sensors for temperature, humidity, and ammonia levels, ensures real-time monitoring and automated control of ventilation and lighting systems. Sustained by renewable solar energy, the system aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) and 13 (Climate Action). The project achieved its objectives by successfully designing and developing the IoT device, integrating solar power systems, and evaluating performance. Results showed accurate environmental monitoring, effective automation of coop conditions, and reliable operation in diverse scenarios. By reducing energy consumption, enhancing animal welfare, and promoting sustainable farming practices, this innovation contributes significantly to modern poultry management and sustainable agricultural advancements.
