Soil Analysis Using Iot

Abstract

For endurable development in the agricultural field continuous cropping is necessary along with the constant check of soil fertility. Agricultural yield primarily depends on soil fertility. Soil nutrient measurement is very important for proper plant growth and effective fertilization. The current approach of measuring the soil nutrients is time-consuming because soil samples are to be collected from the field and it is measured in a laboratory situated in cities away from the farms. Due to more time consuming, There is a need to create a system that will generate similar results within less time. In this paper, a system is proposed that measures Soil nutrients (N, P, K) for rice crop using color sensor TCS3200. Results will be generated in a short time. The user can view the soil fertility as per their convenience on the web application. It will also suggest the farmers which organic fertilizers they can use to get better yield and maintain soil fertility.
