MORRIS (SHRIMP PONDS WATER MONITORING SYSTEMS) BASED ON IOT

Abstract

Indonesia, a maritime country with numerous islands, relies heavily on shrimp farming. Monitoring the water conditions in shrimp ponds is crucial to ensure their viability and prevent large-scale product failures that can result in significant losses for farmers. Poor water quality is a leading cause of shrimp production failures. Implementing proper water sourcing and quality maintenance measures can significantly enhance pond productivity, aligning with the primary objective of meeting the market demand for shrimp. Currently, shrimp farmers employ various tools to monitor different water parameters, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. This research aims to offer alternative solutions by developing a shrimp pond monitoring system with integrated temperature, TDS, and pH sensors in an Android-based device. The sensor data is transmitted to an Android application and web platform via a Wi-Fi network. The study utilizes field tests, black-box testing, SUS analysis, and SWOT analysis methods. The test results reveal technical issues with the MORRIS tool, particularly frequent Wi-Fi disconnections during field testing.
