ABSTRACT

Appropriate environmental conditions are necessary for optimum

plant growth, improved crop yields and efficient use of water and other
resources. Automating the data acquisition process of the soil conditions and
various climatic parameters that govern plant growth allows information to be
collected at high frequency and with less labour requirements. The aim of this
project is to build a Wi-Fi based intelligent automated Sensor Network which
is capable of intelligently monitoring agricultural conditions in a pre-
programmed manner. The proposed system consists of three stations; they are
Sensor Node, controller and receiver. To allow for better monitoring of the
climate condition in an agricultural environment such as field or greenhouse,
the sensor station is equipped with several sensor elements such as
temperature, humidity, soil moisture . The overall system architecture shows
advantages in cost, size, flexibility and power.
