Abstract
Bangladesh economy draws its main strength from the agriculture sector. The sector contributes 19.10% to GDP (at current prices) and employs 50.28% of the labour force.1 However inadequate management practices (fertilizer, water, and pests & diseases) are one of the driving causes for agricultural productivity to be reduce din Bangladesh. The use of fertilizers, quality seeds, and irrigation together cannot ensure sustainable production unless timely and appropriate measures for the management of other nutrients are simultaneously pursued. Therefore this project proposes a completely innovative, user friendly technology that assists farmers in maintaining their crop nutrients without any effort. The function of the rover will be to move around a field comprised of a fixed area. This will be established using a GPS tracker. The rover will it have a colour sensor, DHT sensor, water sensor, moisture sensor which will detect the colour change, and also other things which affect the crop’s growth and wellbeing. The information collected by the rover will be sent to the farmers via a message over their personal mobile phones. Our project aims to give actual data or condition of the crops to the producers to take right steps for the yield production. Using these information, the farmer can take necessary steps for the well- being of the crops, further improving crop yield and productivity
