Development of Automatic Agriculture Machine System using IoT

Abstract

Comparing the past and the present in agriculture, society is losing people who work in farming, and the age of those who remain is increasing. Farmers are interested in special crops if the agricultural products' costs are low and the crops are easy to grow. If the area where a crop grows is bad, the agricultural products' quality gets worse. To overcome this situation, a new approach is being tried with crops. This research offers new technology to the young generation. This paper proposes technology that uses Internet of Things techniques to automatically sparge water and pesticide on orchards and fields using a machine instead of a person. We used the open source Arduino and sensor modules to build the automatic system. In this research, a circuit was simplified, and we constructed the proper size of the system by preventing errors in sensors, keeping distance from objects, and minimizing circuit collision. The machine drives and turns its head to sparge agricultural pesticides. The machine will minimize harmful effects caused by pesticides on humans, and will be helpful to farmers.
