Abstract

Aquaponics is a farming practice that combines the benefits of hydroponics and aquaculture. An Internet of Things (IoT) aquaponics system is used to help collect vast amounts of ecological and agricultural data. An aquaponics system, including a fish tank and planting area, has been completed and set up as an experimental field. The main objectives of this project are to develop and design a monitoring system for aquaponics that can be utilised in many aspects. This project utilises Arduino, Wi-Fi shield and Android applications for monitoring purposes. A pH sensor, temperature and servo motor are used to retrieve and store the data on the Favoriot platform. The result obtained from the sensors was degree temperature, soil moisture, pH, and automatic fish feeder. The system acquires an average performance of 92.5%, considering the data receive and system functionality. In conclusion, the project can monitor the water temperature, soil moisture, pH and provide notifications through the mobile application of the aquaponic monitoring system.
