Overview:

The Smart Dairy Farm Management System is designed to automate and monitor essential farm operations for livestock safety, health, and productivity. It ensures timely feeding, water supply, and environmental safety. The system can automatically provide feed at preset times, turn on water pumps when the water tank is empty, and alert farmers if any harmful conditions are detected. It also monitors gas levels and temperature in the barn, activating alarms and fans if dangerous thresholds are reached, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for the animals.

Key Features:

1. Automated Feeding: Dispenses food to livestock at preset times to maintain a regular feeding schedule.

2. Automatic Water Supply: Activates water pump when the tank is empty to ensure continuous hydration for the animals.

3. Health Monitoring Alerts: Sends alerts if any harmful or sick livestock is detected.

4. Environmental Safety: Monitors gas levels and temperature, triggering alarms and turning on fans when thresholds are exceeded to protect livestock.

5. Energy & Resource Efficiency: Ensures water and feed are used efficiently, reducing waste.

6. Remote Monitoring (Optional): Can be integrated with IoT platforms for remote supervision via mobile app.

Components Used:

1. Arduino/NodeMCU (control unit)

2. Servo Motors (for feed dispensing)

3. Water Level Sensor (for tank monitoring)

4. Gas Sensor (MQ2/MQ135)

5. Temperature & Humidity Sensor (DHT11/DHT22)

6. Relay Module (for motor/fan control)

7. Buzzer/Alarm (for alerts)

8. Fan (for cooling and safety
