IoT-Based Cultivation of Mitragyna Speciosa

This paper proposes a smart farm system, applying to cultivate mitragyna speciosa plants in Thailand. The greenhouse system with several sensors, microcontroller, and cultivation devices has been designed. The temperature, light intensity and moisture in the area of cultivation can be measured and the microcontroller has been used to read all data and then they are shown through the website. The cultivation data have been processed and then used for controlling temperature, light intensity and moisture inside the greenhouse. The proposed system is very effective, that the temperature values, light intensity, and humidity can be monthly, daily and hourly viewed and displayed on the computer and smartphone. When the proposed system has been applied for cultivating mitragyna speciose, the better growth results have been found comparing with the traditional cultivation.
