Abstract

Indonesia is the number 5 shrimp producing country in the world. The Indone-sian Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries wants to develop shrimp farming into one of the leading export commodities by 2024 by increasing production by 250%. Although that doesn’t mean that shrimp farmers don’t have problems, one of the problems farmers face every year is the difficulty of finding water during summer which can cause crop failure, therefore farmers need help with water ir-rigation in shrimp ponds. Therefore, in this study we created a system that can automatically fill water in shrimp ponds using a Float Level Sensor which is used as an indicator of whether or not water should be filled. This study also uses the MQTT Protocol to transmit data from the automatic irrigation system to the user’s smartphone so that the user can also monitor the pond. The automatic irrigation system can also be activated via the user’s smartphone by sending orders from the mobile phone which will be transferred to the system using MQTT. From the ex-periments conducted, it was found that the use of MQTT is more appropriate for this system than other protocols in the data exchange process.
