IoT-based soil condition monitoring for efficient pakcoy watering system
Keywords:
Pakcoy, Monitoring system, IoT-based, Rapid application development, GreenhouseAbstract
Pakcoy is one of the most popular vegetables in Indonesia due to its nutritional value and its wider stems and leaves compared to regular mustard greens. However, the growing demand for pakcoy has not been effectively met due to declining soil fertility, excessive use of chemical fertilizers, and suboptimal farming techniques. This research proposes a solution to overcome these problems by developing an IoT-based soil condition monitoring system for watering and fertilization. The Rapid Application Development (RAD) method consisting of Requirements Phase, Design Workshop, and Implementation is used to design and implement the system. The system uses an Arduino ESP8266 microcontroller integrated with a soil moisture sensor, DHT11 temperature sensor, and pH sensor to monitor plant conditions. Data is collected and sent to the server every 10 seconds and displayed to the monitoring system. The system automatically regulates watering and fertilization to ensure optimal soil moisture and pH levels. Field testing in a greenhouse by comparing pak coy plants with the traditional way and with the IoT-based system. The results showed significant improvements in plant health, reduced susceptibility to pests, and increased leaf width, with an average increase from 1.8 cm (traditional) to 2.4 cm (IoT-based). This research demonstrates the potential of IoT technology to improve pakcoy farming efficiency, yield quality, and sustainability.
