Wireless sensor network based advisory system for Apple Scab prevention

Abstract: Apple Scab, caused by the fungus Venturia inaequalis, is the most serious and damaging disease in apples that causes financial losses up to 70% in epidemic years. With the espousal of precision agriculture to ensure better farm management and sustainable development, in this paper, we propose a wireless sensor network (WSN) design, with a view to build a decision support system for the prediction of Apple Scab in the Kullu, Himachal Pradesh, orchards based on the Mills tables. We discuss the plausible architec… Show more

“…The feasibility of deploying WSNs at low cost has made these systems highly desirable for military, agriculture, sports, medicine, and industry. The potential applications of WSNs as cost-effective processes to improve agricultural resource management have been reported: irrigation management systems [3], farming systems monitoring [4][5][6], pest and disease control [7], controlled use of fertilizers [8], cattle movement monitoring [9], groundwater quality monitoring [10], greenhouse gases monitoring [11], asset tracking [12], and remote control and diagnosis [13,14]. The most promising applications for WSN in precision agriculture are irrigation management, farming monitoring, disease control, and fertilizer accuracy [15].…”

“…This specification may reduce the window of opportunity of the farmer to quickly intervene. Bhargava et al [9] developed a simulation of a WSN to predict the onset of Apple Scab. Although the simulation provided a suitable architecture for deployment of WSN, no experimental tests were performed and the power efficiency and the duration of operation of the motes were not evaluated.…”
