Abstract: In any country, all the factors which are necessary to develop a solid economy are centered around an important sector and that is agriculture. This sector plays a very important role in the economic development. But there are so many hurdles for this sector that hinder its true potential. Some of them are dependency on weather, lack of land area suitable for farming, political ignorance etc. So considering all these now a days, greenhouse farming is gaining popularity among farmers. Even those who do not belong to a farming background can adopt it easily. In our work, five parameters which are necessary for the good quality product are discussed. An intelligent and very efficient monitoring and controlling system is suggested. These parameters are- soil pH level, light intensity in the greenhouse, temperature, humidity level and soil moisture level. These parameters have some specific range of values that is suitable for a particular crop. These are measured through different sensors like- soil pH sensor, DHT11 sensor for humidity and temperature, soil moisture sensor and LDR sensor for light intensity. These are interfaced with arduino platform. Some actuators like- cooling fan, water pump, exhaust fan etc are also connected to arduino that work according to the data given by sensors. All these work in the IOT (Internet of Things) environment and are monitored and automatically controlled.
