Rancang Bangun Dan Analisis Sistem Kendali Pemupukan Tanaman Berbasiskan Fertigasi Pintar
ABSTRACT
The process of manual fertilizing plants (fertilization) using liquid fertilizer has
disadvantages such as it requires human labor and is inefficient in the use of
fertilizers and water sources. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to design
and build a fertigation system or fertilization carried out during irrigation of
plants. The fertigation technique applied is the drip fertigation technique where
the fertigation liquid that has been stirred is placed in a tank with a certain
height. With the gravitational force of the tank, fertigation liquid is channeled
through pipes, hoses and emitters to the soil around the plant. While the control
system and automation of fertigation distribution to plants is carried out based on
a microcontroller that reads soil moisture values around the plant. If the
fertilization time and humidity values are met, the electronic valve will open so
that the fertigation liquid flows from the tank to the plants. Furthermore, in this
study, a test was carried out to determine the discharge and uniformity coefficient
of drip fertigation. From the test results, it was found that the 15-minute test
discharge was higher than the 30-minute discharge. The uniformity coefficient
obtained in the two tests is greater than 90%. In testing the 2 soil moisture
sensors used, the average error percentage is less than 1.7%, where the average
error for the soil moisture sensor 1 is 1.6% and the average error for the soil
moisture sensor. 2 is 1%. Meanwhile, for ultrasonic sensor testing, the results of
the sensors tested have an error percentage of 0%. From the results of testing the
fertigation system, it was found that the system worked very well.
