4.1 Discussion and Conclusion
The designed system is cost-effective and can be
easily affordable for the farmers. In past years, the
environmental conditions in the poultry farm were
not monitored properly. We all know that the
environmental parameters in the poultry farm can
affect the growth and health of the birds, it also
affects egg production. If the environmental
parameters are maintained properly, we can enhance
egg production. We can also reduce the mortality of
the birds. So, the designed system has the capability
of monitoring the various environmental parameters
and real-time monitoring of the birds through video
streaming in the Blynk IoT app and it also as a feature
of sending notification alerts to the poultry farmers if
any environmental parameters are not in the optimum
level. The designed system helps the farmers to
understand poultry farming more easily and also
improves the economic status of the farmers.
This is an innovative technology that has the
potential to serve as a bridge in connecting traditional
farming practices with modern automation
techniques. It can change the previously followed
management practices. Thus, it is an ideal system to
monitor the growth of chicks continuously.
In this study, we have found that the temperature
in this locality is much higher than the threshold
values given in Table 1. Also, the humidity is very
low and does not meet the minimum requirement of
60%.
In the future, this system can be enhanced by the
addition of automated intimation techniques and
disease detection. This can also be extended to
management practices like automated ventilation by
fans. Automation by sprinklers in case of high
temperatures or low humidity can be used.
