IoT Based Crop Protection System

One of the biggest problems farmers face in India is the attack on crops by wild animals in their fields. The damage from these attacks significantly and adversely affects the crop yield. In Seetharampuram village of this district, which houses 300 families of farmers, attack by wild boars leads to sleepless nights. Farmers in this village use electrical fencing (though illegal in India) around the fields to keep away wild animals. But due to many accidents, which have caused the death of farmers as well as animals, this approach is not so appreciated by the farmers. As an alternative to electrical fencing, the farmers keep vigil at night to keep the wild animals away. They use flashlights to ward them off. This is a very strenuous task and the lack of sleep adversely affects the farmers’ work during the daytime. The damage caused by the animals to the crops affects the total yield of the harvest immensely and the farmers have to suffer a loss in their income because of this. HuT Labs designed a solar-powered, IoT based intelligent system that can be used to prevent crop damage due to wild animals. The system implements IoT technology along with simple sensors.
