Abstract
IoT technology is widely applied to many areas, including agriculture. The smart farming design and implementation deal with farm operations and management effectively. The aim of this research enables supporting a vermiculture smart farming kit based on IoT technology. The layered architecture design is represented to support the deployment of sensors, networks, monitoring systems, data collections, and watering decision system. Information flow diagram is proposed to improve how the web application of our smart kit system can implement based on the system requirements. The evaluations of the smart kit are investigated to deal with consistency and effectiveness comparing between a traditional and the smart kit of earthworm vermicomposting. The gaps of farmers' needs can be satisfied to advance the better solutions of the smart farming kit.
