1. INTRODUCTION
Internet of things (IOT) applications utilize the advanced communication technologies between devices for granting
a better gamut of accessibility features to the end users who live in connected areas. Nowadays, We have a read in
the newspapers many days about the loss of the farmer and the farmers often worked the maturity and suspicion of
crop production See you will not have to worry about the temperature, the water level and simply terrible weather
conditions for farmers so in our project The main objective of our project is to protect plants from animal damage
and diversion an animal and monitoring the atmosphere of plant [1-5]. An animal detection program is designed to
detect the presence of an animal and provide a warning. In this project we used PIR and ultrasonic sensors to detect
the movement of the animal and send a signal to the controller. Does the animal by producing sound and signal
continuously, this signal is transmitted to Arduino and provides a warning to farmers and the forest department
immediately here are we provide a better security to farmer and facility to used a fixed amount of fertilizers in
farms according weather condition . This work reduces the cost of arming and helps to improving agriculture
domain.
Our objectives of this project are there-
1. To design the security for farm protection,
2. restriction the entry of animal into the farm
3. Use Ir sensor and IoT technology for alerting us,
4. Design a system that sounds when animal tries to enter into the farm.
we gives details of temperature level and water levels, At the stage of reading “Design and Implementation of an
Intelligent Security System for Farm Protection from Wild Animals “research paper we get to know that how to
overcome fire accident during object detection because ”texes” paper fence wire is used which is biggest mistake
for fire accident during high wind velocity in a field.
They used fence wire for object detection but we used different thing for detection here we used infrared sensor for
detection of object when any animal try to enter in field then ir sensor will send “0” signal to arduino which control
the buzzer and then buzzer generate the sound for animal protection and also we upload temperature and moisture
data on server where framer can watch the data on blyank.

1.9 Blynk app (mobile application)
Mobile application is software which runs on a android with an active internet connection unlike the mobile
application which run locally using an open source operating system. It performs its all programmed task on the
internet without any requirement of a local data base because it takes the data form cloud.
Fig1.9: Block Diagram Representation
Fig.2 explains the interrelationship of different sensors with each another. There are we used three sensors which
we are used in this project.
2. PROJECT EXECUTION PLAN
Initially, information was collected and research was undertaken using various research papers which were available
on the internet related to smart farming and animal protection system. Then a choice had to be made for the selection

6 | Page
of technologies to be chosen to made the project in a moderate amount of cost. There were many technologies
available on the internet but the most impact full trends were taken by our team.
The aurduino was used as Micro-controller and it can also connect different sensors which are needy for the project.
Because in our project many sensors are presented After the Micro-controller was selected it was connected to the
Ir sensor and was programmed using c++ A lot of libraries were executed because we take many type of sensor, and
finally a program was created which can give a signal to Micro-controller when any object is presented between Ir
sensor and then using Some algorithm to control all data of 4 IR sensors to find the data form all 4 direction and
then we have to upload this all data on cloud so for this conduction we find that we need a some module which can
upload the data on cloud after research we get esp8266 module which can make a interface between aurduino and
cloud so the farmer get to know that the weather animal is near the field or away from field
After completion of the animal protection part the next task was to find different sensors to read the atmosphere of
field in nearby surrounding. For this System, Moisture sensors and temperature sensors were used. The all sensors
is connected with Arduino analog pins because we know that temperature is analog in nature which should be used
as digital in Arduino so we connect sensors to ADC pin of Arduino They were programmed in such a way that they
became to give a error less data and the physically we place the all sensors on roots of plants for Optimized output.
And we programmed each section in , its function. So we can reduce the syntax of out program which can readable
for any one during project and easily changeable we used LCD also to display the data of our all data . we control
our servo motor according to moisture data which comes from Arduino when moisture sensors send the data to
Arduino .
Now after collecting all the data, a storage solution was to be solved by blynk app which is open source any one can
use its freely available that could provide easy and fast access to the data at any point. For this we have to
programmed according the blynk app in program we have to give token number which is generated though blynk
app so finally we made our project which display all data on blynk app.
3. CIRCUIT DIAGRAM
Fig.3 Circuit Diagram Representation
Fig.3 represents the circuit diagram which is created during the project. As there are limited GPIO pins on the
Arduino we take the 5V VCC and GND pin common on the breadboard. All the VCC and GND of all the different
sensors to the breadboard were connected with common GPIO pins for power. All the reading/writing connections
of different sensors are connected individually to the GPIO pins 4 IR sensors were used for entry points in farms
and exit points and also in 4 direction for give a proper amount of water we use servo motor.
In this project four IR sensors are used, which will be placed in all 4 IR sensor of farms for each direction to each
point of entry and also its create rectangular shape of area which is acts as security area where no permission is
accessible.[4-7]. The IR sensor will give a zero signal when any animal want to enter in our filed because the circuit
is incompatible upon this data we decide that some object try to enter in our farm, and the buzzer will be on when
we get zero signal otherwise if all the IR sensors are blocked then the buzzer remain off.

The moisture sensor is also used to get the data of water content in roots of plants and we get all data form esp2886
module and Arduino which make connection between clouds and local database of Arduino these devices are
connected for taking real time data of moisture content when the moisture content of roots will increased to cutoff
condition then our servo motor start to provide the water content and then servo motor will be off when plants roots
will get a proper amount of water the temperature of all plants will get form temperature sensor the temperature
data is given to Arduino and Arduino sends this signal to es8266ABOARD configuration has been used to program
the project using c++. The OUT pins of the IR sensors are connected to Pin A1,A2,A3,A4 of the Arduino.The
servomotor pin is connected to 5 pin of GPIO set. Resistors are also used to controllable connection to the ultrasonic
sensors and to increase reliability.
4. Result and Conclusion
The main aim of this project is to make the agriculture work so simple and adorable we want to reduce the cost of
farmers so we use animal protection system which helps to give a proper satisfaction to the farmer that his farms
are fully secured but some issues are not solved as when any human comes in the contact with the IR sensor then
the IR sensor will give the zero signal.[1-3].
Fig.8: Response of app.
So we can’t identify that whether the target object is human or animal so we can remove these issues with image
sensor technology. because from this technology we know that the object is human or animal. and also some issues
related with the internet because in some villages internet is not available which create a big issue for this project.
so the application of this project is limited . This project includes the monitoring system of crops where we give all
data of roots temperature and moisture content. which is beneficial In the terms of giving a piece of proper
information for plants when the farmer gets all data then farmer use a fixed amount of fertilizers to optimize the
result of his farming .
