Iot Based Biofloc Automation and Monitoring for Smart Fish Production

Biofloc is complex and technical for a farmer, but extremely effective and profitable. This paper reviews some current IoT based fish farming work and proposed architecture for biofloc agriculture automation. A theoretical comparison study will demonstrate this system as new and unique. This work successfully relates IoT and biofloc technology, as well as introducing a few new features on existing drawbacks. The proposed architecture uses Raspberry pi as a microcontroller that connected to the cloud through Wi-Fi in order to store real-time data in NoSQL database. Seven types of sensors continuously monitor water parameters and four types of actuators take proper steps to main suitable conditions. Air pump, water pump, heat pump, wavemaker, and valve can be controlled by the farmer using comfortable web or mobile application. The system could be developed at low-cost for developing countries like Bangladesh and farmers could achieve higher production with less effort.
