Summary:This paper focuses on protection of flowering plants using IOT technique. Tamil Nadu stands second in the cultivation of flowers and production. In flowering plants, Jasmine is one of the plants which gives more productivity. The aim of this paper is to restrict flowers from falling off the plants. The shedding of jasmine flowers during rainfall will make extreme changes in flower productivity. Rain sensor used here detects the rain and sends the information to the farmers using the IOT technology. In recent years, explosive development of IOT devices have enhanced the challenges in smart farming. Once the sensor senses the rain, the blower starts to blow out the air till the rain stops. Blower is a device that raises the velocity of air or gas when it goes through supplied rotor. The head of the blower extends like a shield over the plants to protect the flowers from falling off. As the speed of the rainfall increases, the range of air from the blower can be increased. This method is effectively because wireless sensor networks can communicate the information gathered from a monitored field through wireless links. This technology greatly decreases the manpower, saves time and operates efficiently without human interference and involvement.
