The chicken poultry sector is critical to our country’s long-term food supply. The coop's climate is one of the factors that ensures chickens grow in the best possible conditions. Without proper environmental management and oversight, heat stress and illness problems could possibly result in a decrease in the amount of chicken meat and eggs produced. To address the prospect of a shortage soon, it is critical to optimize chicken production through standardized farming management and practices. With the application of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and Internet of Things (IoT), its potential benefits to the poultry sector. It could serve as a foundation for low-cost, easy-to-implement solutions. The aim of this project is to develop a system that is linked to an application and serves as a monitoring assistance for chicken farms. This project employed a digital temperature and humidity sensor that can communicate and transmit real-time data to the ESP8266 microcontroller and display them via Android mobile phone from the Blynk Cloud system. This system also activates fans to control the air when the air quality dropped sensed using the temperature and humidity sensor module DHT22. This auto detection and monitoring system effectively implemented the quickest response time and accurate monitoring of an emergency, assisting in the speedier dissemination of the critical situation. Creating an intelligent poultry farm will make it easier to replace physical labour with poultry work. Human labour will also be reduced with this prototype, and intelligent work will be accomplished anywhere and anytime.
