Abstract

The IoT-based Greenhouse Monitoring and Controlling Systems (IGMCS) are used to improve the productivity of agriculture by maximizing the use of resources and managing the environment. This paper presents a novel high-tech IGMCS that employs water sensors, LDR, DHT11, and soil moisture to monitor the water temperature and implement water control and heating by fans, LED strips, and water pumps. The system runs on the Blynk IoT environment which provides remote monitoring, data visualization and interaction. Results have shown the framework enhances the efficiency in operations, sustainable practices, and increase in crop yields. The study looks into the architecture and functional design of this system and its implications to the current greenhouse management to promote the development of smart agriculture.
