Abstract

Sericulture refers to the production of silk by the rearing of silkworm. Globally,the second largest
manufacturer of silk is India. In India, sericulture acts as the root for financial, political, social and intellectual advancements.
Temperature, Humidity and Light intensity are the important parameters for the progression of silkworms and suitable
encouraging must to be done according to the requisites in every stage. Environmental changes plays a major part in silkworm
growth and development. In India , sericulture is theimportant occupation and the techniques used by the agriculturists are
yet outdated. Hence there's the need of enhancing and developing the modernization technologies in the cultivation of
sericulture. The model goals at making use of developing technology that is IOT and smart sericulture using automation. The
proposed framework introduces an Internet of Things (IOT) empowered Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) system
in order to deal with a continuous observation of silkworm development insericulture in every stages. The proposed model is
employed utilizing Arduino Software and various sensors for detection of environmental parameters. This system will
overcome the problems of insufficient silkworm egg production equipment and technologies, variations in the environmental
conditions, insufficient technical skills in silkworm rearing and lack of appropriate silk processing technologies. Water
sprinkler is used in case of fire accidents to minimize the loss of cocoon and the role of vibrator is to avoid the congestion of
cocoon in order to produce the good quality of silk. The major crisis for development are Poor rearing management techniques
and underdeveloped skills of farmers. Farmer were forced to maintain the process of the rearingof silkworms by getting loans
from banks. Smart irrigation for mulberry plant is the approach which leads to good quality. On the basis of required
environmental condition, thefan, light, and heater is turned on and off automatically. The nature of PH level in the pesticides
can be identified by the PH meter. The planned system is financially affordable and power effective organization. The current
system requires continuous internetconnectivity and GSM module to send the data to the farmer by SMS. This system permits
for data assessment and scheduling to be programmed through the Arduino IDE software.

I INTRODUCTION

India ranks 2nd worldwide in the silk production market, according to the report of central silk
board. India, on the other hand, produces 15% of global silk production, compared to China, which produces 85%. Silkworms
are raised to produce silk in sericulture. Silkworms are nourished for the preparation of silk in sericulture. Silkworm is
regarded as the most important housetrain organism that harvest effective cocoon-shaped silk fiber by consuming mulberry
leaves during the starting stage of larva. The key factor that can be identified for a huge contrast is the lack of atomization in
the sericulture department. The environmental changes dispute the fluctuation in the atmosphere inside the rearing house of
a silkworm, which also attack the cocoon and shell load ratio as cocoon consistency Therefore the silk quality is affected in
the house of silkworm due to the environmental change. To increase the quality and production of silk thread, this paper
proposes the use of automation in sericulture. By supervising the various habitat factors like humidity, lightweight,
temperature intensity throughout the existence of the silkworm that enriches the silk quantity and quality. This enormous
uniqueness exists because of the absence of mechanization sericulture process and that is watched that everything is manual
which incorporates the treatment of silkworm; measures produced to decrease the results of the atmosphere on silkworm
raising, encouraging of silkworm and showering of drug powder. Since the strategies taken after by the ranchers are obsolete,
this project extends a thought of automation in the sericulture to enhancing the acceptance of both subjectively and quantity.

II. LITERATURE REVIEW

The work notifies about the workload related to labor was high during the checking of silkworm
factors in the present methodology and one of the ancient methods in sericulture. The differences in the ecological
circumstances are recorded from time to time to highlight the need for supervision of moistness and temperature for feasible
cocoon generation [1]. In this technique the agriculturalist will check every factor manually with calculating the necessary
attributes for rearing [2].
It provides a way for pop up procedure and utensils to archive exhibit and familiar with operating
components effectively through the continent of a WSN model. It aims at elegant sericulture tidy by appealing self-regulation
and IoT technologies. The cloud computing device has the ability to construct an integrated computing system, which notices
data from the sericulture field and accurately loads the record into the origin.[3]
The system provides an inventive method for smart agriculture by relating tidy controlling systems
and smart sensing appliance throughout wireless communication technology. It suggests affordable expenditure and capable
WSN network with automation of IoT to supervise and detect the humidity, light intensity, and temperature present in the
abode of the silkworm [4].

STEP DOWN TRANSFORMER:

A step-down transformer converts a high voltage on one side to a low voltage on the other. A
transformer is a reliable device that converts power from one circuit to another by varying the voltage and current but
maintaining the same frequency. In the power system, the stepdown transformer plays an important role. This transformer
adapts the voltage level to the energy level by lowering it. The voltage level in the transmission line is stepped down using
this transformer. This transformer will change the current from AC to DC. It converts 230 volts to 12 volts. Because our
circuits operate at 12 volts (log voltage), From the step-down transformer to the power supply board, voltage is passed.

Figure.2: step-down transformer

REGULATOR BOARD:

A regulator board is developed automatically to control a constant voltage. A voltage regulator uses
a straight forward pattern or it includes negative feedback. Based on the components, the voltage regulators may be used to
control single or multiple AC or DC voltages. Voltage regulations are beginning in an electronic device like computer power
supplies where they maintain DC voltages used by the process and its elements.

Figure.3: Regulator board

Arduino Uno:

The Arduino UNO is a part of the microchip. It is an open source microcontroller chip. By using
Arduino technology, we can load programs into the device directly without the need for the hardware programmer to burn
the program. Because of the presence of the 0.5 kb of the boot loader, it can directly load the programs and that allows the
programs to be done into the circuits. Arduino projects can be detached and they can interface software that runs on a
computer.

Figure.4: Arduino UNO

Gas sensor:

Gas sensor is the device which identifies the presence or concentration of gases in the
environment. The gas sensor generates a consistent potential difference by converting the resistance of the matter inside the
sensors based on the concentration of gases, which can be calculated as output voltage. Gas sensors are commonly used to
measure gas concentration and detect toxic or explosive gasses. Gas sensors transpose broadly in size and sensing ability.

Figure.5: Gas sensor

Humidity Sensor:

Water vapor can be detected by a device called a Humidity sensor. It detects and measures water
vapor. Arduino and other IoT platform most commonly use Temperature humidity sensors. After calculating the saturation
vapor pressure, relative humidity can be divided by combining pressure by the vapor pressure and then multiplying to convert
them. A capacitive sensor consists of two electronics, which are separated by a dielectric material. As separated water vapor
content to the most extreme level of the punishing increases and changing the measured capacitance corresponding to the
humidity level.

Figure.6: Humidity Sensor

Relay:

A relay is an electrically operated switch that consists of a group of input consoles for one or more
control waves as well as the management of contact terminals. Relays are electrical switches that use electromagnetic
technology to convert small electrical stimuli into larger currents. When the conversions happen, electrical inputs activate
electromagnetic to either form or break existing circuits. This magnetic field passes through the top of the relay field, bringing
it up to the start level from the spring's chosen level to the initial energy level.

Figure.7: Relay
LCD Monitor:

An LCD is also known as a liquid crystal display. In the real-life electronic-build projects liquid
crystal technology is used for the display units.16*2 LCD modules the most common thing is the display size. Here we are
using the 4-bit mode to display all the modules on the LCD screen. It works on the theory of obstructing light slightly than
discharging it.

Figure.8: LCD monitor


Temperature Sensor:

An electromagnetic device, called a Temperature sensor helps in measuring the environment temperature and
transform the load statistics and display the temperature. If the coolant is off then the temperature of the sensor will be
evaluated to make to the process it is not uncommon for the coolant temperature sensors to fail and send to the most underrated
level. This will reduce the fuel economy hinder engine performance. If the temperature is high, the light will turn off and the
fan will automatically be turned on. Here fan is considered as cooler in order to reduce the temperature in the optimal level.

LED Light:

LED requires the Arduino to send information to switch on the LED on. The excessive signal is observed to the
part of the digitalized ever prolonged, to turn off the LED the Low signal will be intermediate makes to the flash by the
length of the earliest bird of the wing. If the temperature is less than optimal level, the LED light will get turned on.

Figure.10: LED light

BUZZER:

An Arduino can be directly connected to a tiny speaker called a piezo buzzer. When you add electricity to such
crystals, the phenomenon known as "piezoelectricity" occurs. By adding an electric signal to the crystal, it will emit sound at
the correct frequency. Buzzers, a type of electronic buzzer with an integrated structure that is operated by DC. When the gas
sensor detects the gas, the buzzer will be turned on for the alertness of the farmer. Then the buzzer sound will be turned off,
if the gas is not detected.

GSM:

A GSM modem is a wireless modem that works with a GSM wireless network. A wireless modem behaves like a
dial-up modem. The main difference between them is that a dial-up modem sends and receives data through a fixed telephone
line while a wireless modem sends and receives data through radio waves. A GSM modem can be an external device or a PC
Card / PCMCIA Card. Typically, an external GSM modem is connected to a computer through a serial cable or a USB cable.
GSM is a cellular network, which means that mobile phones connect to it by searching for cells in the immediate vicinity.
GSM networks operate in four different frequency ranges. Most GSM networks operate in the 900 MHz. GSM-900 uses 890–
915 MHz to send information from the mobile station to the base station (uplink) and 935–960 MHz for the other direction
(downlink).This 25MHz band width is subdivided into 124 carrier frequency channels, each spaced 200 KHz apart. The
channel data rate is 270.833Kbit/s .GSM has used a variety of voice codec’s to squeeze 3.1 kHz audio into between 5.6 and
13 kbit/s. Originally, two codec’s, named after the types of data channel they were allocated, were used, called Half Rate
(5.6 kbit/s) and Full Rate (13 kbit/s). These used a system based upon linear predictive coding (LPC). In addition to being
efficiency with bit rates, these codec’s also made it easier to identify more important parts of the audio.

VIBRATOR MOTOR

Microcontrollers are used with virtually every vibration motor application. Whilst some industrial applications may
want vibration motors to run continuously (where we would recommend a brushless vibration motor), in most cases vibrations
are desired at specific times and for specific durations. As prices and size of chips have decreased, it has become incredibly
simple to access and implement microcontrollers. This guide will show you just how easy it is to control a vibration motor
or any DC motor for that matter. Arduino (in the US) and recently Genuino (outside the US) a development platform that is
easy to use, inexpensive, and has a large and active community. We’ve chosen to use it in this article because of its popularity,
it also serves as the basis of our own Haptic Feedback Evaluation Kit.

One of the reasons for its popularity is its simplicity – the microcontroller is actually hosted on the board and all the
necessary components for programming are already populated. Simply plug the USB into your computer and download the
software. There are many types of Arduino, aimed at different applications. Here we’ll use the most popular Arduino UNO
R3. However, before starting, we should highlight the main limitation of driving motors with microcontrollers. Most DC
vibration motors have a start current and operating current draw that is greater than the output current of the microcontroller’s
pins. We mention this limitation at the start because it has an important implication.

WATER SPRINKLER

Water, like electricity, will always flow along the path of least resistance. In order to lift water the pump must
provide a path (area of low pressure or low resistance) to which the water will naturally seek to flow. It is critical then to
recognize the role atmospheric pressure plays in creating such lift. At sea level the atmosphere exerts a force of 14.7 lb/in 2
(PSI) on the earth's surface. The weight of the atmosphere on a body of water will prevent lift from occurring unless an area
of low pressure is created. The below figure shows three hollow tubes, each with a surface area of 1 square inch, rising from
sea level up into the atmosphere.

In tube (A) atmospheric pressure is the same inside the tube as it is outside: 14.7 PSI. Since the weight of the
atmosphere is being exerted equally across the surface, no change occurs in the water level inside the tube In tube (B)
a perfect vacuum is created making atmospheric pressure greater on the water outside the tube. The resulting differential
cause water, flowing naturally to the area of lowest pressure to begin filling the tube until it reaches a height of 33.9 feet.

PH METER

The electrode should be in solution when it is “measuring” pH. When out of solution, it should be in stand-by
mode. Keep the electrode in solution as much as possible even when not measuring pH. When rinse electrode with water,
blot the water off gently using kimwipes – especially around tip of electrode. Two point calibration of electrode (in most
2
cases we use pH 4.0 and 7.0 standards). If the solution you are making has a pH over 8.0, use pH 7.0 and 10.0 standards for
2-point calibration. Place electrode in solution you wish to pH. Be sure that it is stirring slowly during measure and pH
adjustment. Add acid/base as needed to reach desired pH. When complete, put pH meter in stand-by mode. Remove electrode
from solution and rinse thoroughly with water. Blot dry and put back in yellow pH storage buffer. Place parafilm over the
hole and around the bottle to minimize evaporation.

IV. SOFTWARE REQUIRMENTS

 Arduino Software IDE


 Arduino program

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION:

Arduino perform as the brain of the system and proceeds the statistics from the sensor. IDE software is required for
Arduino-based projects. The IoT is an open work of physical gadget that contains immerse technology to converse and
interrelate with their inner state or outer environment. The Arduino platform is entirely liked with people just initiating with
electronics. The Arduino IDE gives the program contends to change the runnable code into a file in a hexadecimal encoding
that is packed into the Arduino board. To flash the user code onto official Arduino boards argued is used as the uploading
tool.

Arduino Software IDE:

A text editor for a message area, a text console, a toolbar with buttons for common functions, writing code, and a
series of menus are all included in the Arduino Software IDE. It connects to the Arduino and Genuine hardware to send and
receive programmes. The Arduino IDE is free software that allows you to compile and upload code to the Arduino Module.
The main code created on the IDE platform will eventually result in a Hex File, which is then sent to the controller on the
board and synced.

Arduino Program:

Arduino was a simple hardware and software-based open-source electronics programme. Arduino boards can take
inputs like a finger on a button, light from a sensor, or a tweet and turn them into outputs like starting a motor or turning on
an LED. By sending a set of commands to the board's microcontroller, we can tell it what to do. The Arduino Software (IDE)
and the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring) can be used. Arduino has powered thousands of projects, ranging
from simple problems to complex scientific instruments.

V. PROPOSED SYSTEM

MODULE DESCRIPTION

In the old method in order to produce quality silk threads, we want to maintain the cocoon by maintaining suitable
parameters like temperature, humidity, and light. It leads to an increase in human work and high cost. So, we want to wait a
long time in which it leads to a delay in the production of silk. In case of any critical situation, the cocoon may get affected.
According to the process of sericulture, the silkworm nurturing process starts with the female silk moth by laying around
300-500 eggs. These are obtained from single female silk moth. Those eggs (placed on a sheet of paper/cardboard) are then
sterilized with the 2% of formalin mixture.

A feeding bed is developed on a nursery by spreading the small pieces of mulberry leaves on it. The larvae that are
conceived get shifted to this tray by a process is known as brushing. To control wetness, foam strips are rinsed in water and
kept on the tray. The silkworm larvae usually at beginning have a good hunger. When they get develop, their hunger slightly
decreases until their working stage. In this stage, the silkworm eats eagerly up to its last stage of feeding.

After attaining adulthood, the young ones start finding for hospitable areas to begin with their larva stages. At this
process, the silkworm diminishes and gets transparent. These adult pupae now protect themselves in a cocoon by producing
saliva from the head of their salivary glands. This saliva coagulates and modifies into silk when its exposure with air.

The larvae inside the cocoon encounter transformation process and changes into larva. The collection of silk from
these cocoons is the last stage of sericulture process. First, the larva inside the cocoon is destroyed by heating the cocoon and
keeping it on the steam as well as dry heat. This process is called as stifling. These filaments are clustered into a thread with
the help of guides and pulleys. This silk is again boiled to increase its shining.

AUTOMATED FUNCTIONS OF SENSORS

Temp > 40 C Fan ON

Temp < 40 C Light ON

Table 1: Maintenance Table

The Sharp proximity sensor device can detect objects as close as 10 cm away and as far away as 80 cm. It sends
out a burst of infrared light and then measures the angle at which it travels. The output voltage of the distant object is lower.
If the sensor receives no reflection, the output voltage will be 0 V, while the output voltage will be around 5 V if the device
is 10 cm or closer. (In this experiment, we're using 5V to power the sensor.) The analogy input on the Arduino is externally
connected to the sensor's output. The analogy-to-digital converter (ADC) on the Arduino will convert the range 0 to 1023.
This range is then combined to produce a number between 0 and 255, which is used to control and monitor the continuous
flow of a pulse-width modulated output. the glowing of the LED. The result is that the nearer object is to the proximity
sensor; the LED will glow brightly.

The Arduino microcontroller is simple to use and a well-made single-board device with a wide range of applications
in the hobby and executive markets. Because the Arduino is open-source, the hardware is not overpriced, and software
development is completely free. Because there is so much information on the site, Arduino users will be able to steal it in the
future. The Arduino board's strength is in its ability to connect with the rest of the world via its input-output (I/O) pins, not
in its ability to crunch code. The Arduino has 14 digital I/O pins that range from 0 to 15 volts and can be used to turn lights
and motors on and off as well as interpret switch states.

SILKWORM REAR HOUSE

Our main objective is to increase the production of silk by maintaining the incubator in automated mode and
monitoring the suitable temperature. Continuous checks the temperature and humidity and sending the message to the user
by GSM & our new feature is to work in case of any failure occurs. Some failures like if the sensor is damaged by any insect
or overheat, this may lead to catching fire and whole silk production will lose. In that situation, an automated water sprinkler
will save the cocoon effectively. A rearing house should essentially provide sufficient bed space for silkworms and working
space for the workers attending the rearing operations, good ventilation to replace ammonia, carbon dioxide, and other
noxious gases released by the silkworms during respiration, excretion, etc. There should be space for leaf preservation,
storing other appliances and chemicals or disinfectants used in rearing. The rearing house should be provided with mesh or
nylon net all around to prevent the entry of unifying, the most dreaded pest of a silkworm. An ante-chamber is to avoid the
entry of unifying so that the workers can watch if the fly enters along with them. Lizards and rats are the common predators
and therefore construction of a rat-proof sill around the rearing house is necessary.

The rearing house should facilitate making it air-tight for fumigation or disinfection to ensure the fumes or vapors
from the disinfectants remain inside the house till the germs inside are eliminated. Most of the sericulture area falls under
warmer zones and the rearing house is expected to provide a cooler ambiance to the silkworm. Use of any material that keeps
the inner environment cool and prevents radiation from the sun. Mud wall and thatch roof are the most necessary thing that
can cool the inner ambiance to the maximum, though, its life is shorter and requires repair of the roof once every 3-4 years.
Hollow cement bricks, burnt earthen bricks, and stone slabs are commonly used materials. North or south facing of the
rearing house is preferred as it provides a good aeration facility since the wind blows either from the north-east or from the
south-west direction. This also reduces the sunlight falling on the rearing bed either in the morning or in the afternoon. In
order to obtain such quality cocoons, mounting the silkworm larvae at the appropriate time and good quality montages are
needed. On the seventh day, silkworms will enter into the maturation period and stop feeding and begin to search place to
develop the cocoons. Such larvae are suddenly picked and mounted onto the mount ages. Care should be taken that the
number of larvae on montages must not exceed the capacity of each mount age. When the larvae are in the spinning stage,
the room temperature of 24°C and 60-70 % of relative humidity along with a good aeration facility are to be provided. Rotary
mount ages are recommended for the growth of good- quality cocoons. About 35 sets of rotary mount ages are required for
mounting worms of 100 dolls. For hanging rotary mount ages, a separate mounting hall or veranda is needed.

The rearing of the mulberry silkworms is fully domesticated. A silkworm-rearing house is a place where the
silkworms are reared for the production of cocoons. The cocoon quality and yield are greatly affected if the optimal
environmental conditions i.e., temperature, relative humidity, ventilation, illumination, hygiene, etc. are not provided to the
silkworms. The rearing house should be rationally designed to keep the micro-climatic and environmental conditions for the
rapid and healthy growth of the silkworms. It should, therefore, have facilities for the creation and maintenance of the optimal
environmental conditions inside the silkworm-rearing house. The rearing house should also provide the required space and
a healthy environment for the workers attending the silkworm rearing. When the temperature and relative humidity inside
the rearing house is below optimum conditions, they are raised artificially through charcoal or electric heaters and running
humidifiers. When the rearing room temperature and relative humidity are above the optimum conditions, arrangements for
natural cooling through good ventilation or forced cooling through wet curtains on windows, air coolers or air-conditioners
should be made besides covering the roof with mats made up of coconut fronds, grass, etc.

TEMPERATURE

 High temperature – Automated working of cooler


 Low temperature – Automated working of heating
 Fire catches – Automated working of water spray

The temperature sensor is the DS18B20, which provides 9-bit to 12-bit temperature readings. These numbers reflect
a device's temperature. A one-wire bus protocol, which uses one data line to communicate with an inner microprocessor, can
be used for sensor communication. Furthermore, this sensor receives power directly from the data line, removing the need
for an external power supply. Industrial systems, consumer goods, thermally sensitive systems, thermostatic controls, and
thermometers are among the applications for the DS18B20 temperature sensor.
2
A temperature sensor is an electronic device that detects or signals temperature changes by measuring the
temperature of its surroundings and translating the input data into electronic data. Temperature sensors come in a range of
shapes and sizes. Some temperature sensors (contact temperature sensors) require direct contact with the physical object to
be controlled, while others calculate the temperature of an object indirectly (non-contact temperature sensors). The sensors
and the cooler will turn on automatically when the temperature difference is detected. As a consequence, IoT will be used to
enforce this.

efficiency, simple in structure, safe and reliable, energy-saving capability and environmental protecting.

LIGHT INTENSITY USING IOT

Silkworm is a type of extraordinary economic insect of photosensitivity, physiology, the growth of the change of
illumination condition to silkworm Speed, lay eggs, etc. all the impact producing to a certain degree, particularly to 1 to 4 age
silkworm physiology, growth speed degree produces drastic impact. But the general situation is that people are to obtain a
higher economic benefit. At present, it takes blindly long light filling, and the light filling condition is too extensive, there is
no deep research, benefit blindly light not only can not improve the growth rate of silkworm, shorten the growth cycle, and it
can affect a silkworm dormancy phase, lay eggs amount, incubation rate, etc.

Also, traditional light filling technology is generally to adopt incandescent lamps, the fluorescent lamp to carry out
the light filling. These lamp source energies consume high energy, service life is short, poor controllability, long-time blindly
light filling not only causes wasting of resources problem, it adversely impacts for growing of silkworm.The object of this

PLANNED SYSTEM

For synchronal monitoring of the framework, the IoT-based smart sericulture system is used. To execute the
automated, impel with serial camera which is placed inside the system and to encapsulate actual images to realize the status.
We have two sensors LM35 temperature sensors, which conserve a correctness of +/- 0.4 0C at room temperature, +/- 0.80C
over a scale of 00C to 1000C with a responsiveness of 10mv/0C and it works at 5V DC. The DHT11 is for both humidity
and temperature sensors. It uses a thermistor and a humidity sensor to calculate the nearby air and to find a digital wave on
the data pin. Three relay circuits have been used, for the three stimulant systems namely heater, disinfection system, and air
cooler.

ARCHITECTURE:

The system contains sensors, Node MCU and actuators, and also three sensors that are humidity, light and,
temperature. Node MCU is organized and has the function to recorder and check the model with the provided doorstep values.
This program contains both the hardware appliance and software part. The important cause of the program plan is to automate
the work of the controller. Sericulture which comes under an Agri-based rural industry is extremely appropriate to the
countries having an agricultural base and complication of employing to the countryside laborers.

The sensors find the variation in the natural framework, the data will be displayed on LCD and it sends the message
to the farmer. In case, if the temperature rises fan will be turned on, if low light is detected LED will be on the LCD liquid
crystal display out-turn presently to check the part and spraying part, the GSM operation is emerged and notify the agriculturist
is emerged in to turn on the sprayer or feeder, the rancher ought to make an intuition on the microcontroller like SPRAYER
ON and FEEDER ON as emerged in the feeder and sprayer will be turned on. After this performance, the LCD shows the
existing move which is proceeds as appeared in, and that data will be sent as a essence to the agriculturist.

RESULT AND DISCUSSION:

When the sensors detect the varieties in the natural parameters, that information will be shown on LCD and sent as
a message to the agriculturist and programmed fundamental moves will be made. For instance, if temperature goes high fan
will be exchanged on, if low light is identified LED will be on.

The LCD outputs presently to control the nourishing part and spraying part, the GSM operation is appeared and
messages the agriculturist is appeared in to turn on the feeder or sprayer, the rancher ought to make an impression on the
microcontroller like FEEDER ON and SPRAYER ON as appeared in the feeder and sprayer will be turned on. After this
operation the LCD shows the present move which is making place as appeared in and that data will be sent as a message to
the agriculturist.

VI. CONCLUSION
Using an IOT-based microcontroller, this procedure provides computerization and organizational control in
sericulture. Technology focused on Arduino and GSM. This device has the ability to monitor the climatic conditions in order
to keep it in a rising state. The actuators are turned on as needed, and the actuators used are effective and available. The
proposed framework is a cost-effective, low-power solution. The primary model explains that the model can be used to
monitor natural conditions inside the ranch on a continuous basis. It explains why the sericulturist is so close to the raising
machine. The system is easy to work with. Future work will include the use of broadband/Wi-Fi and the Internet of Things
(IoT) for corresponding processes and data collection. This “Automated Sericulture Device Based on Internet of Things”
uses Arduino and IoT technologies to provide automation and directed control in sericulture advances, as well as future safety
controls. Within the silkworm rearing, the proposed device facilities and execute the environmental conditions to be reserved.
Depending on the environmental conditions, necessary edge values for parameters like temperature, relative humidity, and
light intensity can be stable. Based on the appropriate environmental condition, the fan/cooler, lamp, and heater are switched
on and off. The proposed system is more cost-effective and saves electricity. The proposed system can gradually monitor the
environmental conditions inside the silkworm raising house, according to the prototype model's implemented test. The
proposed system saves time and money by reducing manpower and reducing the risk of errors such as fires. The model is
simple to implement and use by anyone. The new system necessitates constant internet access. This can be solved in the
future by using the GSM module to send the notification directly to the framer's mobile phone via SMS, bypassing the need
for internet access.

This paper will present a design for an IoT-based smart monitoring and automated sericulture system that uses sensors and
actuators. The sericulture system will allow the farmer to track and concentrate the sericulture system in real-time via the
internet. The model can track and control the system in real-time, and the primary test shows that the implemented model is
effective in monitoring and controlling the climatic conditions in the deployed environment, and has many advantages in
terms of remote monitoring. Future work will include field safety management of IoT-based sericulture using sensors and
GSM backbone connectivity for real-time monitoring over the internet. Many other parameters sensors, in addition to
temperature and humidity, can be used with this device to make it smarter and simpler for the farmer to work with.
