Abstract

 We all know that India is a farming country. Agriculture employs over three-quarters of India's population. Now a days in the world, contemporary technology is essential. Farmers cultivate a wide range of crops. Farmers encounter a variety of challenges. There are numerous challenges with farming. Locusts, insects, worms, and other pests’ destruction of farms Furthermore, hazardous compounds come into touch with Farmers spray pesticide liquid over their crops. This has negative consequences human health consequences. The objective of this system is to offer the public with a cost-effective and healthy machine farmer. So as to reduce the challenges that farmers have when spraying pesticides, we designed a system that is entirely automated. For the operation, we used a NodeMCU ESP32 Microcontroller. Because this technology is solely Bluetooth based, the farmer's direct physical interaction is reduced. The Bluetooth module incorporated inside the NodeMCU microcontroller set it apart from other microcontrollers such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi. NodeMCU programming is simple and similar to Arduino programming, thus we don't need any other programming language or IDE. This technique saves farmers money and time while also reducing the harmful impacts of pesticides.
