Abstract


This study is a farm operation monitoring system using a microcontroller device that gets the status of the farm by using the following factors: soil moisture, temperature, light and humidity and send the status of the farm to the user using a SMS alert notification system all at a given time. The Farm monitoring system was built around three sensor modules, and was programmed to read data from a monitoring device that will be attached to the sensors. The system uses hardware components, as well as software, thereby making it an embedded system. The hardware components includes DHT 11 module, Moisture Sensor, Light Dependent Resistor, a Microcontroller, and a monitoring device. In addition, a GSM Module is used to send SMS alert notifications to the user. The developed system can be applied and used on farm lands to monitor the farm’s operation. At the end of these research work,  microcontroller based farm monitoring system was able to get the soil moisture content, temperature, humidity and light and light of a farm at a particular time and send the status via SMS notification alert system to the farmer.
