Agro-IoT is a smart agriculture platform that leverages advanced IoT sensor networks to monitor and optimize essential soil parameters in real time. The system provides continuous data on soil moisture, nitrogen, potassium, and calcium levels, helping farmers or agronomists maintain optimal soil health and improve crop yield. Through an intuitive web dashboard, users receive actionable insights, alerts, and recommendations for nutrient management and irrigation, enabling data-driven agriculture.

Key Features:

1. Real-time Soil Monitoring: Continuously tracks moisture, nitrogen, potassium, and calcium content with defined target ranges for each parameter.

2. Automated Alerts: Notifies users when any nutrient level falls outside the recommended range, suggesting corrective actions.

3. Visual Dashboard: Modern web UI displays sensor metrics, optimal/low/warning statuses, and overall soil health assessment.

4. Cloud Connectivity: Sensor data is streamed to the cloud for processing, visualization, and long-term analysis.

5. Recommendations: Provides actionable advice, such as fertilizer addition, to maintain soil health based on live sensor readings.

6. Mobile and Web Access: Enables monitoring and control from anywhere via mobile apps or browser interfaces.

Typical Hardware:

1. Soil moisture sensors

2. NPK (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium) and Calcium sensors

3. Wireless microcontroller or IoT gateway (e.g., Arduino, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi)

4. Internet connectivity (Wi-Fi, GSM, or LoRaWAN modules)

5. Power source (mains, solar, or battery)

Software Components:

1. Embedded firmware for sensor data acquisition and transmission

2. Backend API and cloud infrastructure for data collection and storage

3. Frontend dashboard for real-time data visualization and insights

4. Recommendation logic for soil health interventions
