Integrated Low-Cost Intelligent Solution for Inland Aquaculture

Abstract

Maintaining a very good pond is essential for developing healthful fish, attaining satisfactory production and enhancing way of life efficiency. Small-scale commercial farmers walking on small ponds couldn't have the funds to rent employees to monitor daily operations which normally includes monitoring basic parameters like water temperature, water levels, and feeding of fishes. Whereas large-scale enterprises normally have some sorts of automation for water monitoring and replacement. These entities ought to keep in mind using dissolved oxygen (DO) and pH sensing units to make sure the fitness and boom of fish, in the end as their farms grow. Our solution monitors different basic parameters like temperature, DO, pH, flow rate and level which are recorded then correlated with each other to find other factors like toxic ammonia, alkalinity etc. and suggest an optimized way of control. Unlike the existing system which is controlled by user using an app, our system will automictically adjusts when the parameter reaches the threshold rate and sends to user through notification. LDR is used to turn ON lights during night time so that phytoplankton can generate oxygen during night too if required. A website will be created to get clear insights about the parameters. Hence all these factors contribute to better yield and income.
