Introduction
This experiment integrates multiple sensors to monitor soil conditions and optimize agricultural practices in real-time.
Components Needed
- Soil pH Sensor
- Soil Moisture Sensor
- Temperature and Humidity Sensor
- Arduino
- GSM Module for Data Transmission
Circuit Setup
- Connect each sensor to the Arduino, ensuring correct pin configuration and data readings.
- Integrate the GSM module to send sensor data to a remote monitoring system.
Code for Smart Agriculture Sensor Integration
Upload the following code to your Arduino to monitor and transmit the agricultural data:
#include
#include
#include
#define DHTPIN 2
#define DHTTYPE DHT22
DHT dht(DHTPIN, DHTTYPE);
int soilPH;
int soilMoisture;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
dht.begin();
}
void loop() {
soilPH = analogRead(A0);
soilMoisture = analogRead(A1);
float temp = dht.readTemperature();
float humidity = dht.readHumidity();
Serial.print("Soil pH: ");
Serial.println(soilPH);
Serial.print("Soil Moisture: ");
Serial.println(soilMoisture);
Serial.print("Temperature: ");
Serial.println(temp);
Serial.print("Humidity: ");
Serial.println(humidity);
delay(2000);
}
Explanation
The system monitors key agricultural parameters and transmits the data to a remote system using a GSM module.
Troubleshooting
- If sensor data is not being transmitted, check the wiring of the GSM module and ensure it has power.
- Ensure that the sensors are correctly calibrated for your specific agricultural environment.
