WEEK 6: Project Background


After doing some research on my FYP project, I finally get the idea about why and how this project is being carry out. I will put the related information about my project in the project background section for the FYP 1 project proposal.  

Tittle: IOT Application on Fish Farm Monitoring by Controlling Water Quality in Ponds and Tanks


-Project Background-

Monitoring the water quality in fish farming industry is crucial factor as each water quality parameter can directly affect the condition of the fish. This is because almost 50 to 60% of the fish cultured (mostly tilapia) died cause by the farmer’s lack of awareness on the water quality that leads to Streptococcus outbreak, infection by S. agalactiae. Other than the disease, exposure of fish to improper levels of water quality and improper environment to stress next, deteriorating the animal’s health. All the parameters influence each other even though it has its very own value in order to indicates a good water quality in fish farming. The water quality needs to be monitor on regular basis to prevent some diseases which lead to a huge fish kill and next causing a big loss not only in terms of money but the farmers hard work in making sure the successful of their fish farming will be in vain.
