Agriculture is a major source and a major contributor to the Sri Lankan economy. In traditional farming soil is considered as a valuable component and the day-to-day monitoring by the farmer is essential. With the technological development, people were motivated to be employed in other sectors rather than engaging in farming. So, they have moved to urban areas from the country side and live in small spaces like 5-6 perches, flats or apartments having a busy lifestyle to make money for a better living. Even though people have a plantation interest, they are lacking enough space and time to take care of a bunch of plants.
To address these issues we are working on a project of automating a Hydroponic system with use of latest technologies. And also an mobile application to monitor the farm everyday instead of visiting the farm. We are hoping to develop an detector for NPK, which is very expensive in current market. All these solutions together will result a full automated Hydroponic system with minimal man-power.
