dc.description.abstractFogponics is a modernized version of the Aeroponics farming system, often known as "Aeroponics 2.0". Fogponics systems with IoT improved automation and control. Also, it offers significant potential for enhancing sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum) production. In addition to the preparation and design of the program in automating the fogponics. In addition to the preparation and design of the program in automating the fogponics system with IoT with the integration of sensors, microcontrollers, and online platform for real-time monitoring and automated control of environmental parameters, the study evaluates the impact of fogging frequency on basil growth, and yield. By varying the fogging frequency within predefined ranges, the thesis explores in effects on the overall plant performance. The fog is produced by placing an ultrasonic fog generator inside the mixture of water and plant nutrients within an enclosed reservoir. Furthermore, the fogging frequencies were set to 3 different timers. For Treatment 1, the timer was set to 15 minutes on. In Treatment 2, the fogger was on for 30 minutes. Lastly, 45 minutes was set for Treatment 3. Each Treatment had 15 minutes off. The programming language used in the automation was C++. the findings show that basils on Treatment 2 produced the highest number of leaves, most significant growth development, and exhibited the greatest root length. The IoT-enabled fogponic system, demonstrates its ability to minimize human effort, provide remote monitoring and control capabilities that allow precise adjustment of environmental conditions, leading to optimal plant development. This research contributes to the field of sustainable agriculture by combining fogponics and IoT technologies to enhance basil cultivation, offering potential benefits such as increased productivity and resource conservation.
