IOT-based solution for continuous monitoring and management of strawberry crop farming / Muhammad Syamil Adril Zaini

The generic issues that Malaysian strawberry plants may encounter, without mentioning the current circumstances specifically. Several issues affect strawberry plants, including weather, soil, and irrigation [1]. Because of these issues many strawberry farmers face a lot of consequences such as the product will comes out with low quality, the death of the crop and so on. Thus, the issues experienced by strawberry farmers in Malaysia can be efficiently addressed by an IoT-based system for continuous monitoring and control of strawberry crop farming using Arduino UNO, pH sensor, MQ-135(for monitoring air quality including CO2 levels) sensor, soil moisture sensor, LED, mini water pump, and LCD. Data is gathered by the Arduino UNO microcontroller from the pH sensor, MQ-135 sensor, and DHT11 sensor. Farmers can regulate irrigation, ventilation, and climate control using this real-time data to generate the best possible growing conditions for strawberries. The solution makes use of the LED and mini water pump to provide visual and tactile feedback, such as when regulating airflow or signalling when watering is necessary. Farmers can quickly manage illnesses, pests, and unfavourable conditions thanks to the LCD display's real- time information and notifications. The IoT-based system enables farmers to effectively manage their strawberry crops and increase productivity and ensure high quality yields by merging these elements
