About Paper:

This project takes advantage of recent advances in IoT (Internet of Things) and off-the-shelf sensors to enhance agricultural land management and composting practices. By integrating real-time data collection, analysis, and automation, the project aims to improve sustainable agricultural practices, optimize resource utilization, and reduce waste. Key parameters such as temperature and composting conditions (CO2, ammonia, and pH) are continuously monitored using LoRaWAN radio technology and electronic sensors, enabling precise decision-making and enhanced compost quality. The implementation of the LoRaWAN network is a key aspect of the development process of our system as it allows sensor monitoring over long distances. Our system also includes a web-based dashboard that is easy to use, facilitating access to users of different backgrounds. The project contributes to a greener future where sustainable land management and waste reduction are prioritized. Furthermore, this project underscores the significant social impact. By deploying these modern technologies in rural areas of Peru, we want to improve the quality of life for local communities, providing them with the tools to adopt sustainable practices, enhance their productivity, and measure their practices in a precise way that can help them make decisions for their land management.
