Resumen

Food shortages in Peru are frequently exacerbated by roadblocks due to social protests and seasonal variations, restrict food production, and intensify shortages, particularly in regions with limited cultivable land. To address this challenge, an automated control system and IoT architecture for wireless monitoring were developed to replicate specific climatic conditions within greenhouses, allowing the cultivation of crops typically restricted to certain regions and providing a potential solution to improve agricultural productivity and mitigate food scarcity. The system regulates critical environmental parameters such as temperature, irrigation and luminosity, while wireless monitoring of temperature, water level, luminosity, and pH is achieved through RF communication, with data transmitted to a database via Wi-Fi and visualized in real-time using a cross-platform application. In addition, the NRF24L01 radio frequency communication modules were optimal for the application due to their ease of integration with the Arduino UNO development board, affordability, range, and market availability. The system was validated in a pilot-scale greenhouse. Further research is needed to evaluate its long-term scalability and efficiency in diverse agricultural settings, as these aspects remain critical to its broader applicability and impact.
