AbstractThe Internet of Things (IoT), in recent decades, has been explored to develop new technologies that work in a variety of ways in various technologies, especially in the food industry. The field of rice, wheat, and grain to protect the environment is extremely challenging because of its promising potential. proposing a low-cost system called the SMART WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (WMS), to develop remote remote management capabilities for storage in a flexible environment. the system is made up of temperature, humidity, smoke, odor, humidity, and acoustic sensors connected to the nodes-MCU, and gas sensors, which provide vital information needed to achieve the quality of food. This information is transmitted to the Blynk cloud wirelessly by providing a visual interface wherethe user can track changes in product quality from time to time. WMS provides an easy-to-use visual and analytical sensor data application for an effective and inexpensive monitoring system. Test results prove that system performance is perfectly balanced and can meet design requirements in real-time and remote data collection. A unique approach is proposed by WMS to collect data in an environment that eliminates the need for cables or manual labor.

Keywords WMS(warehouse monitoring system); Arduino IDE; node MCU; Blynk application; sensors.

1. INTRODUCTION

   According to the FAO (Food and AgricultureOrganization),

   1.3 billion tons a year are reported food lossesaccount for 33% of total production. Demand for food is growing steadily and could reach about 150-170% of current demand by 2050. Moreover, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 1.7 million deaths a year worldwide are associated with malnutrition of food, Due to temperature variation around 24% of food grains being wasted every year Estimated around 17% of food grains are spoilt due to insects and microbes. Approximately 14% of grains are being degraded by moisture. Approximately 5% ofgrains spoilt by birds. So have to prevent the food spoilage Warehouse being the top priority for storing goods like foodgrains, rice, wheat

   etc. As noted by the Food and Agriculture Organization study that temperatures are high, the minimum must be grain moisture to ensure good crop conservation. Due to the high temperature, food is slowly reduced and high humidity leadsto problems because it promotes mold and insect problem. Lack of proper care can be devastating to farmers. Thisresulted in their huge loss of income.

   The main purpose of this project is to improve the IoT instrumental Warehouse Traceability System, which will enable farmers to keep track of live data on temperature, humidity and other parameters at very low cost so that live monitoring is very easy. Using a growing technology repository can store goods and prevent decay before they occur. An added benefit with a fully automated and fully customized warehouse management system.

2. METHODOLOGY

   Rice – White Rice, commonly referred to as refined rice, is the main source of food for more than half of the world's population. The best storage temperature for rice is 40 ° F or less; however, rice stored at a constant 70 ° F with oxygen in the air will last well for about 10 years. In cool refrigerated storage containers for oxygen-free containers can be stored for up to 30 years.

   Wheat- Storing at temperatures above 60 ° F causes a very rapid decline in seed growth but a much faster loss of feed value. A relative humidity above 12% promotes mold growth and the deterioration of wheat chemicals. Excessive humidity levels above 12% may allow the wheat to begin to decompose, resulting in chemical reactions. Above 15% humidity will allow the mold to grow. When the humidity reaches 20% some germs can begin to grow. The result is rotten wheat that is not ready to be used.

   Cereals – Cereals are kept at a humidity of 14% or less and seeds are stored at a humidity of 12% or less. The grain is protected from insects, rodents, and birds. The grain is

   protected from rain or by absorbing moisture from the surrounding air. Cereals and seeds stored at humidity levels above 14% may cause mold growth, rapid loss of function, and decreased food quality.

   Each sensor connected to the NodeMCU, the output of each sensor is taken and virtually writing in blynk cloud. Setting different threshold for different types of sensors, Arduino ide used to dump the code to node MCU.

   If the value exceeds the threshold, blynk email and blynk notification received. Based on the notification, one can take precautionary measures, blynk mobile application used to see parametric values remotely.

4. CONCLUSION

Most of the authors used temperature and humidity sensors only, use of Raspberry Pi and other microcontrollers are way expensive than node MCU which is used in the project, many of them didnt work on other spoilage of food grains they mostly concentrated on cold storage. To develop a WMS for implementing the project taken few pros from this review survey, the main objective is to give a cost effective as well as cost efficient easy to use multisensory system to farmers, concluding that "In Winter's chill or Summer's heat, Farmer's work so the world can eat".
