Abstract :
This paper presents the deployment wireless sensor network for paddy field crop application. The system can monitor pH level and water level in the paddy field crop. The calibration and system design of the sensor nodes were discussed. The sensor nodes installed at the Titi Serong Paddy field Crop, Malaysia. The system uses wireless data transmission to enable farmers to monitor continuously the water level and pH level at home without constant visits to the paddy field. This system can significantly reduce farmer workload while increasing crop yield.
