Farmers have been suffering a lot due to grazing of crops by stray animals. For them this device will definitely become a better facility. The device has approximately 24 hours of battery life when connected to a solar charging station. The device has other uses as well. Through this, farmers can control the pump set while sitting at home and reduce the flow of water. The device has been developed by the Institute’s ‘Innovation Cell’. It took about a month to make this device.
Notification will come on phone
Harsh Mishra, a student of Buddha Institute of Technology, explains about the device that farmers face difficulties, as animals come and destroy crops. Keeping this problem in mind, we created a project. Once you install this device in your field, it will automatically guard the field all the time. Whenever any stray animal will try to enter the farm, it will generate notification alert on your phone.
Student Akash Gupta told that with the help of this device farmers can monitor irrigation from their home. They can control the pump set using their mobile phone. This will help in preventing water overflow and save water.
Monitoring of fertilizers required for the farm
Amrish Tiwari, Research Associate, Buddha Institute of Technology said that the device has two LCD panels and sensors which will help in monitoring the need of fertilizers. We will add some more sensors, which will help us collect data on soil fertility value. This type of equipment will definitely make farming easier for the farmers. This device will prove effective in increasing the yield as well.
