It is necessary to improve the efficiency of water parameter monitoring at the shrimp hatchery. Currently, staff at the hatchery use a traditional method where water is manually tested using a multiparameter instrument. Thus, this system is built with the aim of developing a system prototype to measure shrimp farming water parameters using LoRa technology and remotely monitor the status of shrimp farming water parameters using an IoT platform. The integration of sensors, Arduino UNO, and LoRa transmitter module was placed at the shrimp farm, while the ESP32 and LoRa receiver module have been placed in the office. Data is transmitted from transmitter to receiver and sent to ESP32 to be forwarded into the cloud via a Wi-Fi connection. Blynk IoT retrieved and displayed data from the cloud for user view. Therefore, the system is proof that LoRa-based communication and Blynk IoT monitoring systems can enhance the efficiency of water parameter monitoring at shrimp hatcheries.
