IOT Based Vertical Farming Using Hydroponics for Spectrum Management & Crop Quality Control

Abstract

In a developing country like India with agriculture as its backbone it has many problems including small landholdings, excessive use of pesticides and harmful chemicals used in place of natural nutrients, etc. These days, consumers are also in demand of a healthier diet such as chemical-free grown plants that are rich in nutrients. Our study fulfills the above requirements for such purpose we have suggested Vertical farming using hydroponics in which vertical farming solves the problem of a small amount of land available for agriculture and Hydroponics helps us go organic. Since the study is performed in a controlled environment the nutrients provided to plants while providing adequate nutrients while using the minimum amount of water such conditions are used and monitoring the plant growth gives us data which can be referred in future for optimum growth of the plants.
