System to provide water and nutrients to the plant
Irrigation should be based on time and radiation and (status of) the crop

Water and nutrient supply essential for crop production
Both should not be wasted in a (economic) sustainable production system
Simple, cheap and effective system is needed

Alinement of the control strategy
Feedback on the user interface, which control parameters are needed (time of irrigation, radiation sum, interval, EC and pH)
Step wise approach for software development● First automate irrigation strategy● Then control EC and pH
Selection of components used (sensors, pumps, control). Cost evaluation
Implementation of the software into the hardware
Demo setup
Meetings with Quantify

Delivery of some components take more time due to the shortage of chips globally
Now the components have arrived so a demo is built
COVID did not allow for a travel to Marocco to assess the current situation
A manual is to be written based on the actual system
A follow up where the system is tested in Marocco needs to be formulated. Contacts with CHU Agadir have been made.
