Abstract (EN)

With the advancement of technology, the impact of modern agriculture on our daily lives has significantly increased. Systems designed using automation have become indispensable over time in terms of saving time, cost, and convenience for users. Fixed systems designed for the cultivation of specific plants become obsolete and a financial burden for users over time, as they cannot adapt to the evolving needs of the user. Therefore, there is a need for systems capable of cultivating multiple types of plants. Additionally, designing a system that maintains optimal conditions such as suitable temperature, humidity, and lighting will ease human labor. In particular, Light-Emitting Diode (LED) lighting systems aim to provide supplementary lighting in greenhouses where light intensity decreases during winter months, supporting the cultivation of fruits and vegetables. In this study, information collected by humidity and temperature sensors placed in the greenhouse system is processed by the Arduino Uno controller. Based on the data received by the Arduino, the irrigation pump, cooling fans, and heating fans will automatically operate when irrigation, heating, and cooling are needed, ensuring the necessary environmental conditions for the plants. In addition to maintaining environmental conditions, an auxiliary lighting system has been designed to provide the necessary illumination in regions with limited sunlight or in indoor plant production environments to facilitate photosynthesis. Previous research has utilized red and blue light, known to positively affect plant growth. During the germination, growth, and fruiting stages of plants, lighting is provided at the required intensity needed for each stage.
