Abstract

Malaysia is one of the largest producer of fresh vegetables in Asia. A collection of ground formation and suitable weather all the time enable our country to achieve sustainable food production in Agricultural sector. In order to increase the quality and the efficiency of the crop production, precision agriculture and modern technology is needed to develop and encourage among the vegetable producers. Precision agriculture can provides higher yields with a lower input cost and environmental pollution compared with traditional method used. Instead of using labor to carry out the activities, precision agriculture relies more on latest computer and electronic technologies which could simplify the works. One of the example is IoT system. IoT is a network of physical objects (i.e. devices, vehicles, and buildings) instrumented with embedded electronics, sensors, software, and networking connectivity enabling these objects to collect and exchange data. In this project, an IoT System with four sensor (temperature, pH, turbidity and humidity) is developed and the data is directly displayed on the screen of smart phone. Arduino and Blynk software is used to link between each other and the data obtained show an accurate results. This system is very useful for farmer to detect the actual amount of fertilizer and water needed by plant or crops.
