A Survey on Soil Monitoring and Testing In Smart Farming Using IoT And Cloud Platform
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 11
Abstract
The perception of Smart Agriculture is flattering a truth as it evolves from intangible models for the development of crop at different stages. In traditional agriculture, cultivation of the plants will be used to sustain and enhance human life. The cultivation in our nation is much reduced due to lack of interest, scarcity of agriculture land and water and some farmers with their own interest they have been doing the cultivation at the present. But that also yields to very less production due to lack of awareness about the land dryness, no timely pesticide usage and suitable crops for the land. Hence now a days the Smart Agriculture has come into the depiction globally. It provides the key by means of placing the sensor in the cultivation land to determine the soil effectiveness. This paper surveys about the using of IoT sensors with the cloud environment to testing and monitoring the soil. Testing of soil type and quality consists of many tests, such as bulk density test, respiration test, moisture test and it also needs to check the water quality. In viewing of results obtained by the above tests the device suggests the crop for the farmer and it also helps him for the maintenance of the crop.
