- Monitoring and prediction system for indoor microgreens growing environmentsPublication . Silva, Deborah Ishikawa da; Leitão, Paulo; Bazzi, Claudio Leones; Barbosa, JoséDue to the increasing adoption of sustainable practices, urban agriculture has become more common. Microgreens, known for their rapid growth cycle, are particularly well-suited for development in these areas. However, traditional agriculture faces significant challenges throughout the cultivation process, such as instabilities, losses, and crop failures, primarily due to variations in environmental conditions that directly influence plant development. These difficulties are further accentuated in urban agriculture, as these areas typically lack adequate infrastructure and ideal climatic conditions. In this context, automated greenhouses emerge as a solution to stabilize cultivation by artificially replicating the necessary environmental conditions for plant growth, regardless of external conditions. This work explores using Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to monitor urban agriculture, enabling more predictable, adjustable, and optimized control of cultivation processes. In the analyzed scenario, integrating graphical interfaces for intuitive system monitoring allows for both local and remote tracking of the indoor environment, optimizing existing practices. Thus, continuous monitoring of parameters enables over- sight, harvest forecasting, and decision-making, facilitating resource management during cultivation.
