Poaching of economically precious trees has become a major threat to the plantation of these trees causing an environmental imbalance and risk to the natural resources. Wireless sensor network technology can help develop an energy efficient system for monitoring the poaching of trees. Routing protocols in wireless senor networks are responsible for forwarding the information within the network ensuring reliable communication. This paper proposes an effective routing technique for signaling the nearby base station about the poaching activity based on the vibration measurement using the designed sensor node. The protocol is designed based on the field layout, system design, and application requirement of low power consumption and energy efficiency. The Area based routing protocol will measure the RSSI of the sensor node and forward the signal if the RSSI is within the required range.
