IoT BASED ONION STORAGE MONITORING AND AUTOMATION CONTROL SYSTEM

Onion is very important and valuable crop for Indian farmers, after harvesting the onion it is necessary to store it properly because rotten onion results in huge loss to the farmers. It is essential to develop the system that can helps to store the onions without rotten. In this paper we have proposed an IoT based Onion storage monitoring and automation control system which controls the environment of onion’s in the onion storage place. This system enables real-time climate monitoring, identifies early wastage, and alerts the farmer based on the analyzed data; which helps to reduce wastage of onion and helps to store onion up to eight months. In this system we have used temperature, humidity, and gas sensors and these sensors accurately detected the micro – environment change and all real – time values. Information within the onion warehouse is controlled by IoT system to standard values to store the onion. Simultaneously relevant information is communicated to the farmer via mobile application and web server.
