Abstract

This project aims to design and build an Automatic Solar-Powered Aquaponics System to create a sustainable and efficient way to grow food. Aquaponics combines raising fish (aquaculture) and growing plants without soil (hydroponics). The fish waste provides nutrients for the plants, and the plants help clean the water for the fish. Using solar power makes the system eco-friendly and reduces energy costs. The main goal is to develop a system that works on its own, optimizing conditions for both fish and plants with minimal human effort. The system will include solar panels, ESP32 microcontrollers, and various IoT sensors to monitor soil moisture and water pH levels, as well as other factors like temperature and light. These sensors will control water flow and aeration automatically, adjusting conditions in real-time to keep the environment ideal for growth. By combining renewable energy with automated aquaponics and IoT, this project aims to show a feasible model for sustainable agriculture. Expected results include lower energy costs, better growth rates for both plants and fish, and a system that can be scaled up for different applications. This could be especially useful for urban farming and areas with limited resources
