Abstract

The Smart Farming Project integrating Solar-Powered IoT Technology for Sustainable Hydroponic Cultivation in Greenhouse environments stands at the forefront of transformative agricultural practices. This multifaceted initiative not only embraces cutting- edge technologies but also embodies a commitment to ecological responsibility and resource efficiency. The adoption of solar power as the primary energy source underscores the project's dedication to reducing its carbon footprint and promoting renewable energy in agriculture. The integration of IoT devices, including sensors and actuators, creates a networked ecosystem that constantly gathers, processes, and communicates real-time data on various environmental variables and crop conditions. This wealth of information empowers farmers with unprecedented insights, enabling them to make informed decisions for optimizing plant growth and resource utilization. Furthermore, the project's emphasis on hydroponic cultivation within greenhouse structures represents a departure from traditional soil-based farming methods. Hydroponics, a soil-less cultivation technique, allows for precise control over nutrient delivery, water usage, and environmental conditions. This results in increased crop yields, reduced water consumption, and minimized reliance on chemical inputs. The greenhouse setting not only extends the growing season but also provides a protective environment that shields crops from adverse weather conditions, pests, and diseases. The synergy between hydroponics, greenhouse technology, and IoT-driven smart systems creates a holistic approach to sustainable agriculture.
