Top 9 Electrical projects
based on agriculture
Agriculture is the base of all human developments (?). Application modern science in agriculture helps to get a high yield. Electrical projects based on agriculture also improves the productivity of farmers and help them a lot. Here we discuss a few innovative electrical and electronics projects based on agriculture.
Listed projects are helpful for both electrical and agricultural engineering students. A brief explanation of each topic is also given below
#1 High efficient solar irrigation system
Electricity from photovoltaic system uses for irrigation in large fields. Generated electricity runs electric pumps to irrigate the field at the required rate. The irrigation system can be automated to make it more efficient.
This project can be developed as one of the agriculture based projects using Arduino
#2 Plant moisture monitoring system
A project to monitor the moisture of plats would be developed using a microcontroller and humidity sensor.
Based on the value obtained from the humidity sensor the system could indicate the moisture status of the plant.
#3 Automatic irrigation system using micro biogas plant
An automatic irrigation system using renewable sources of energy is an environment-friendly electrical engineering project based on agriculture.
Biogas plant development and run electric motors on the biogas based electricity is a good project.
Irrigation automation
#4 Automatic moisture and temperature controlling system
Moisture and temperature are two factors that affect the growth of plants. Automatic monitor and control of temperature help the greenhouse tent a lot. The project can be done using a temperature sensor, humidity sensor, microcontroller, and other components.
#5 Seed dryer using a photovoltaic system
A photovoltaic system based seed dryer can be one of the best electrical projects based on agriculture. Instead of using the direct temperature from the sun, electricity generated from the solar panels installed in the field can be used for drying the seeds.
#6 Automatic Ploughing and seeding robots
Automatic seeding robots continuously seeds in the field and navigate from one side to another using an ultrasonic sensor. You can use other techniques such as voice command in a robot for seeding and plowing.
#7 Water level sensor for agriculture field tank
An automatic tank filling system using a water level sensor can be developed to maintain minimum water in the overhead tank in a field. A motor pump runs and fills the tank when the water level goes below a predefined level.
#8 Solar-powered ploughing robot
Renewable energy source powered robots do not result in environmental pollution. A plowing robot that uses solar energy can be developed.
#9 Wind and Solar integrated irrigation system for a field
Wind and solar integrated system is a good electric project that is applicable in the field of agriculture. Connect the two systems, store energy in the battery, convert and use the energy to irrigate the field are challenging parts of the topic.
Agriculture based projects in electronics
The following are a few agriculture based projects in electronics. The implementation of the projects can be done using microcontrollers, and Arduino.
