Abstract
This paper presents implementation of cost-effective solar powered hydroponic system with Internet of Things (IoT) for online and remote checking and controlling the system operation. The objective was to take advantage of the abundant solar energy while incorporating IoT platform into the system. The system is made up of power supply unit, control unit, Wi-Fi unit, input unit and output unit. The system monitored temperature, humidity and volume of the nutrient solution and at the same time sent online messages to the farmer. The test carried out showed that the system is working and the readings obtained online showed a ± 1% variation from the physical measurement done remotely with meters. This implies that the online control of the system operation was effective.
