RFID based fruit monitoring and orchard management system
Abstract
This research presents an efficient fruit monitoring and orchard management system to replace the existing paper-based manual process. The new method is based on five state-of-the-art technologies, namely Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID), Wi-Fi network, Mobile App, Coud database/server, and Web Application. This paper presents the proper integration of these technologies to provide an effective, worker-friendly, and cost-effective solution to the problem. The proposed method starts by attaching RFID tags to each tree and each fruit and registering them in the cloud database. The cloud server visualizes the status of the orchard and implements inventory management. Workers use a hand device for tasks such as bagging, spraying, and plucking. The orchard manager carries out task assignments and worker deployment on the web application. Each worker gets notified of the assigned tasks on his hand …
