PLC based Greenhouse Automation

Abstract

Plants are everywhere around us, Plants need water, nutrients, air, water, light, temperature, space and time to grow. Plants needs both water and nutrients to survive as our human body needs this too. And same as like human beings they need water and nutrients in proper proportion to grow, too much or too little can be harmful to plants. Besides water and nutrients plants also needs fresh air and healthy soil for its proper and healthy growth, Plants also needs sunlight to grow, light is used as energy for making food, that process is called as photosynthesis, and temperature is important too, different types of plants requires different temperature and climatic conditions. A plant needs air, soil, light, temperature, water and nutrients in proper proportion to grow and hence the crops. To create such favourable environment, PLC based greenhouse automation system is designed which will control the measure such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, soil moisture in a ploy house, that are continuously monitored and controlled using PLC.
