Abstract

This paper addresses the challenges of optimizing environmental conditions in hydroponic farming by integrating an Intelligent Fuzzy Logic-Controlled IoT System. The research problem lies in the inefficiency of traditional hydroponic monitoring systems, particularly in maintaining ideal conditions for plant growth while minimizing resource waste. This study aims to develop a system that leverages IoT technology and fuzzy logic to monitor and automate hydroponic processes more efficiently. Using sensors, the system continuously tracks key environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture, pH levels, and total dissolved solids (TDS). A fuzzy logic controller (FLC) triggers actions based on predefined rules. During testing, the system showed effective performance—for example, activating fans when temperature (31.2°C) and humidity (60%) indicated a need for cooling, and adjusting nutrient levels when pH (5.8) and TDS (450 ppm) were suboptimal. The system offers practical benefits through real-time adaptation using defuzzification and aggregation, ensuring precise resource control, improving efficiency, and reducing waste. This study highlights the system's potential to support sustainable agriculture by providing scalable solutions that enhance plant growth and optimize resource use, especially for small-scale farmers and urban farming initiatives.
