IoT based Poultry Farm Temperature and Humidity Monitoring Systems: A Case Study

Abstract

Malaysians with an affordable source of protein. Malaysians consume about 50kg of chicken meat and 370 eggs each year, according to the data provided by authorities. Chicken is the most popular meat in Malaysia, and it is provided by over 3000 poultry farms across the country. The Internet of Things (IoT) technology automates changing the temperature and humidity of poultry animals. Android applications were created where the user wants to monitor temperature and humidity in a normal state while caring for the poultry animal. The sensor detects the temperature and humidity and automatically a lamp and a fan are turned on indefinitely to keep the chickens stable, when the temperature and humidity crosses the boundary of a particular threshold, and a notification is generated to alert the situation. This reduces the human intervention and time required improves poultry businesses. Considering Malaysia's importance to the world, the chicken business is critical since it provides
