Abstract

With the current advancement of IoT and information technology, there are many solutions related to agriculture and soil condition monitoring. It is very important that these solutions need to be tailored as per the area and climate that the farmers are working in. The government of Bangladesh has also initiated many projects with specific goals and objectives to make agriculture more advanced in order to achieve the sustainable development of the country. But, there are limitations to getting efficient outcomes from these projects, as many services are not interconnected yet. This paper demonstrates a model for monitoring the soil condition of farming land, where a farmer can easily know the need for irrigation or fertilizer usage in his field. This model focuses on the affordability of the device for the farmers, and it also minimizes the utilization of devices.
