| Summary, etc. |
Declining soil health, ineffective irrigation, and access to real-time data to enhance<br/>crop productivity are some of the challenges faced by smallholder farmers. To overcome<br/>that, this project originated development of automatic, solar based monitoring of soil<br/>moisture content in eggplants and automatic irrigation for its growth. The microcontroller<br/>(MCU) in the stack, an ESP32, is responsible for managing the sensors that will determine<br/>levels of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), pH, moisture, temperature, and CO2.<br/>Sensor data istransmitted wirelessly and saved on Google Firebase, and a mobile app called<br/>RevitaSoil tracks soil conditions and provides remote irrigation control. The system was<br/>tested over 15 weeks in eggplant plots subjected to two different farming conditions<br/>traditional and carbon farming. The carbon farming plots implemented techniques such as<br/>mulching and mushroom compost as well as the automated irrigation system. When the<br/>results were tallied, they found that the plots with the companion plants had up to 71%<br/>more soil carbon, better soil nutrient levels across the season, and better water by the time<br/>the season ended compared to traditional plots. The reliability of the system was validated<br/>by comparing sensor readings with commercial soil test kits, resulting in temperature and<br/>moisture measurements with less than 6% error. Powered by solar energy, the entire system<br/>is economical and feasible for off-grid or geographically isolated farms. The research<br/>demonstrates how the combination of smart sensors, renewable energy and<br/>environmentally friendly farming practices could give farmers better control over soil<br/>health and water use, boost productivity and reduce their environmental footprint. |
