A Verilog-based Design for Real-Time Data Processing and Control in Agricultural Fields using FPGAs

Traditional agriculture faces challenges of resource inefficiency and environmental impact. This paper proposes a real-time precision farming system using Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) and Verilog-based Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). The system leverages real-time sensor data (moisture, nutrients, environment) for precise control of resources like temperature, humidity, light, CO2, and dissolved oxygen. Verilog HDL programs FPGAs to implement control logic, dynamically adjusting these factors for optimal plant growth. Simulations confirm the effectiveness of three control modules: temperature/humidity, CO2/DO/EC, and light/moisture. A vast sensor network tracks crucial parameters (water quality, weather, soil composition) for data-driven insights. This empowers farmers with real-time monitoring and automated control, promoting sustainable and efficient resource management. The FPGA solution offers scalability, performance, and efficiency, revolutionizing agriculture practices.
