Inspiration

As a Mechanical Engineer, I love to solve the real life applications and want to do various types of experiments which are conveniently used by everyone. As we know agriculture is the backbone of India, farmers are doing a lot of work and struggling their life. So I decided to make the process automatic for providing the required amount of nutrients to the plant.

What it does

We get nutritious rich food. Suppose any person need specific nutrient rich food we can cultivate that nutrient rich food. So that we can reduce the various types of diseases related to vitamins and others also.

How we built it

The nutrients are stored in the poly tanks and these nutrients are supplied through pipes with the help of butterfly valves into water tank. The certain ratio of nutrients should be supplied for that we will be using PID controller. After entering into water tank it blends with water and supplied to the farm. To know the lack specific nutrients in the solution we will be using pH and TDS scales and sensors. Through this it will change the proportional rate. In this way we can automate the system with less labor work.

Challenges we ran into

We faced many complicated problems like identifying plant diseases by observing the color texture on the leaf's. To find out the adaptive rate these plants. To provide the desired atmospheric conditions by covering with green cloth. Automating the system. Providing the AC current source by using the renewable energy source like solar panel

Accomplishments that we're proud of

One of the biggest accomplishments that we are proud of is that we are cultivating nutrient rich food. through this Labor work will be reduced.

What we learned

We learned to establish the mechanical setup to provide the dozer. We learned to control the power supply and working operations of sensors and controllers. To study the plant behavior we learned image processing determine the the type of disease or lack oof nutrients can be observed by using Convolutional Neural Networks. To predict the plant growth we use Linear Regression.

What's next for Nano nutrients

We plan to continue to improve and refine Nano Nutrients, adding new features and functionality that will make it even more powerful and user-friendly. We also plan to explore ways to integrate Nano Nutrients with other concepts like weed content and providing the information of suitable crop for the particular land. We are excited to see where this project will take us and how it will revolutionize the world of Agriculture
