A Survey on Smart Hydroponics for Sustainable Agriculture

Abstract: Since India is an agro-based nation, different agricultural methods should be developed other than the conventional methods. From earlier period to 21st century the various changes have been took place in climate. So, to meet these environmental changes, need to develop a sustainable agricultural method. Hydroponics is a sustainable agricultural method since it is soilless, independent of environment, and produces quality crop. Combining the new trends of technology like IoT could bring a revolutionary change in the agricultural field. Smart hydroponics using emerging technology could be a milestone in cultivation field has it automates, controls, monitors, and manages the all system effectively and remotely without any manual assessment. It provides healthy and good agricultural product and also helps to increase the yield.
