Question: Automated Fertilizer Mixer System for Fertigation Farming

Answer: This paper describes the automatic fertilizer mixerfor fertigation farming system using microcontroller. The purpose
of this project is to study the effectiveness of the system in mixingthe raw ingredients of fertilizers into either set A or set B fertilizers
using a low-cost system. An Arduino microcontroller, LCD,keypad, and motors used to operate the system for separating the
raw ingredients and mixing it to form the result of fertilizermixtures. The final mixture results referred to as the amount of
the raw ingredients recorded for a specific level of water byadhering to the given formula. After several experiments
conducted, this technique proven to be an effective way of separating and mixing the fertilizers mixtures. The mixture
ingredients were successfully mixed, and the given formula was strictly followed. The combination had been mixed with a low
weight percentage of error by separating it using this developed system. The overall functions of the system have met the objectives
by successfully combining the mixture
