On Field Monitoring and Control of Polyhouse

Abstract

Polyhouse is referred to a structure which completely isolates the inner environment around the plantation area from the outside weather by altering the physical parameters such as relative humidity, moisture content of soil and temperature. These changes can be made by foggers, misters and drip irrigation, but this needs lot of experience and expertise. Therefore this method is majorly dependent upon humans, to reduce this dependency and to ensure maximum results we have tried to atomize this whole procedure by using a network of sensors and microcontroller. The atomization process would include continuous monitoring of all the parameters and displaying them on the LCD; these parameters will be processed by the microcontroller to decide the mode of control. Also we have installed an alarming system which alerts the workers about a drastic change.
