Week 10: FYP1:-Benefits & Budget

PROJECT BENEFIT


There are several benefits of owning a development of humidity control and automatic greenhouse watering system. Firstly, this project can reduce man power because the system is run automatically. So, the gardener doesn’t need to water their plants using hand watering again. Then, it can save the user time such as within this system the gardener can make any job without focus on monitor plants only. After that, it can make plants growing well because these systems completely care about the requirement to plants growth.  As we know, it also can save plants for example you can count on an automatic sprinkler to provide your plants with a carefully timed, precisely measured amount of water, exactly when you need it. Last but not least, this project can share a current value of greenhouse environment which is humidity and temperature of greenhouse.
