Environmental Monitoring System for Mushroom Cultivation

Abstract

The project is designed to monitor temperature and humidity for the cultivation of mushrooms. The real-time temperature and humidity are displayed using a cloud allowing users to track data from anywhere. Mushrooms need a specific temperature and humidity to make sure that the mushroom can grow perfectly. At the expansion phase of the mushroom, it will need a different temperature and humidity, it can be a bit tedious to measure the temperature and humidity in the traditional way. Any drop in the temperature and humidity level for too long will damage the quality and quantity of the mushroom. The main objective of this project is to design and develop a mushroom cultivation monitor system with a programmable reading system to inform users of the current temperature and humidity to adapt to the mushroom cultivation process. This project consists of two main components an ESP32 as a microcontroller, and BME280 for temperature and humidity sensors. All the data will be sent to Favoriot. Based on the result that we get in the data stream we can conclude that our project is working and can be used for Mushroom Cultivation Environment Monitor. The value temperature between 24 °C to 26 °C is the best temperature to cultivate mushrooms and humidity is between 78% and 95% to get the best result for mushroom cultivation.
