Hydroponics is a new agricultural production system in which the production takes place in a soilless medium using water. The hydroponic system requires controlled environment for the proper growth of plants, less chance of diseases and faster growth. It includes Automated Monitoring and controlling environmental parameters like temperature, humidity, Light timing, etc. The parameters are acquired by the respective sensors. The key objective of this paper is to present low-cost Smart Hydroponic System using Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) with Arduino UNO to design and implementation of a control system for a hydroponic system to control the flow of nutritious solutions in growth channels. The controller is based on the Arduino Uno controller. using this technique we can grow plants like green leafy vegetables, tomatoes, cucumber, peppers etc. without any harmful pesticides and fertilizers.
