Description
Automation of agricultural processes is an ever-evolving field, seeking to improve efficiency and sustainability in food production. This paper explores the use of the Arduino platform in automating a greenhouse, providing a practical and affordable solution for plant growers. By integrating temperature, humidity, light and soil moisture sensors, the Arduino platform enables constant monitoring of environmental conditions in greenhouses and automatic adjustment of parameters to optimize plant growth. Also, the automatic control of the irrigation system contributes to the efficient management of resources and the provision of an optimal environment for plant development. Implementing this solution offers significant advantages, including increased yield, reduced water, energy consumption and reduced risk of crop loss.
