STRAW MUSHROOM CO2 AND CO CONDITION CONTROL USING IOT

Abstract

The cultivation of straw mushrooms requires precise environmental control to ensure high yield and quality. Factors such as temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide (CO₂), and carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations play a crucial role in their growth cycle. Traditional monitoring methods are often manual, inefficient, and prone to human error, leading to inconsistent results. This project introduces an IoTbased environmental control system that continuously monitors CO₂ and CO levels in the cultivation chamber using sensors, automatically adjusting ventilation and alerts through microcontrollers and cloud connectivity. The system not only ensures optimal growth conditions but also promotes safety by detecting harmful gas levels. The integration of IoT and sensor technology enables data-driven decisionmaking and remote monitoring, making mushroom farming more sustainable, efficient, and intelligent.
