ABSTRACTIoT BASED SYSTEM FOR PRODUCTIVITY INCREASE IN ORGANIC FARMINGThe National Mission on Clean Ganga (NMCG), Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY), and Bhartiya Prakritik Krishi Padhdhati (BPKP) are a few of the government-sponsored programs that aim to enhance soil health through organic farming. However, practical solutions are required to accomplish this goal and boost farmer economies by lowering input costs. More focus must be placed on the production of biofertilizers, organic manure, organic fertilizer, phosphorus-rich organic manure (PROM), vermicompost, bio-control, and bio-pesticides using biotechnology. Organic farming can lessen soil erosion, enhance soil health and product quality, lessen water pollution, save water, increase local biodiversity, and ease the financial strain on farmers. Thus, the present proposed an IoT based system for productivity increase in organic farming. The system is based on various kinds of sensors that are essential for an organic farm such as pH sensor, soil temperature sensor, soil conductivity sensor, MOS sensor for organic matter estimation/detection. This system will help the farmer to estimate the organic matter concentration, salinity condition, pH, and temperature of the soil. It also helps in the management of organic farms effectively with efficiently by detecting real-time soil parameters from the soil with organic matter for organic farming, therefore a user can see data on their mobile or computer.
