Perancangan sistem pengairan dan pemupukan otomatis tanaman cabai pada greenhouse berbasis mikrokontroler
K Kelembaban tanah, suhu, dan pupuk merupakan penentu pertumbuhan tanamancabai, sehingga dibutuhkan pengairan dan pemupukan yang baik agar tanamancabai tumbuh dengan subur. Pengairan dan pemupukan tanaman cabai saat inibanyak dilakukan secara manual sehingga hasilnya tidak sesuai dengan yangdiharapkan. Pengairan dan pemupukan tanaman cabai secara manual membutuhkanbanyak sumber daya manusia. Pemilik tanaman cabai tidak bisa memonitortanaman cabai setiap waktu, sehingga dapat menyebabkan tanaman cabai layu danmati. Dengan perkembangan teknologi sangat dimungkinkan membuat sebuah alatpengairan dan pemupukan. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk merancang alat yangdapat mempermudah pemilik tanaman dalam memonitor kebutuhan pupuk dan airpada tanaman cabai. Perancangan sistem pengairan dan pemupukan tanamanotomatis ini dibuat dengan Arduino Pro Mini sebagai mikrokontroler, grovemoisture sensor SEN0114 sebagai sensor kelembaban untuk mengetahuikelembaban tanah pada tanaman cabai, dan DHT11 sebagai sensor yang mendeteksisuhu udara pada greenhouse, setelah itu sistem memberikan laporan dari Arduinoke Smartphone kondisi tanah dan udara pada greenhouse. Pada saat sensorkelembaban tanah menunjukkan Rh (Relative Humidity) <80%, nilai temperatur>28°C maka pompa menyala dan fan menyala, untuk kondisi kelembaban tanahmenunjukkan Rh (Relative Humidity) >80 %, nilai temperature <28°C maka pompamati dan fan mati. Pemupukan tanaman dilakukan secara otomatis setiap 14 harisekali disaat kelembaban tanah menunjukkan Rh (Relative Humidity) <80%.Kondisi lingkungan pada greenhouse hampir sama dengan kondisi lingkungan luar,alat ini dilengkapi dengan blynk sebagai penampil output nilai sensor denganjangkauan wifi < 30 meter pada ruangan terbuka
T The quality of soil moisture, temperature and nutrition determine the success of chilli farming. Therefore, good irrigation system and fertilization are required to have healthy chilli. However, manual irrigation and fertilization techniques which are still practiced in a few places is no longer reliable. These techniques often use a number of manpower to perform. It requires the farmers to monitor their chilli all the time to prevent crop failure. Fortunately, technological advancement in creating more effective and efficient irrigation and fertilization is highly possible. This study aims to design a tool to help farmers better monitor their plants’ irrigation and fertilization needs. This Automatic Irrigation and Fertilization tool utilizes Arduino Pro Mini as its micro-controller, SEN0114 grove moisture sensor to measure the soil moisture, and DHT11 to measure the temperature in the greenhouse. This tool would send report from Arduino to smartphone about the soil and air condition. If the soil moisture sensor shows %Rh <80%, DHT11 >28oC, the water pump and fan would be switched on. In addition, if the soil moisture shows %Rh >80 and DHT11 <80%, the water pump and fan would be off. Meanwhile, the automatic fertilization would be operated once every 14 days only when the soil moisture sensor shows %Rh <80%. The growing environment inside the greenhouse is similar with the environment outside. Moreover, this tool also utilizes blynk to display the sensor value output which is The quality of soil moisture, temperature and nutrition determine the success of chilli farming.
