    Abstract
    The poultry business relies on human analysis to monitor the farm environment to yield better poultry products including meat and eggs. This process is subject to errors of omission resulting from unpredictable human insensitivity and variability due to individualistic differentiations leading to inconsistency. In modern agriculture, automation plays a vital role. This project focuses on the integration of wireless sensors and mobile system network to control and remotely monitor the different environmental parameters in a poultry farm in order to yield better and hence more income generation. This project will provide a system that will warn the person in-charge about the various changes in the environmental parameters like temperature, humidity, etc. by sending the information onto a monitored online platform over Wi-Fi. The person in-charge can initiate a required action by sending a feedback and when the system doesn’t receive a feed back in a particular time period it will initiate the action needed automatically. Lighting will also be monitored and controlled as it plays an important role in the illumination of the poultry farm. Remote monitoring is achieved by acquiring all sensor values and passing the values to the online platform. Thus the system design will provide an efficient automated and easy to use agriculture monitoring system.
