Vegetable Traceability System is the process of all the way traceability of vegetables or fruits starting from planting, harvesting, processing to distribution and delivery. In India, Agriculture is a source of livelihood for majority of people and has a great impact on the economy of the country. On the statistical scale, India ranks second in worldwide in farm outputs. The growth of the India's GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is increasing day by day. From the past few years with the traditional farming, India is also practicing the smart farming. Various techniques have been used for smart farming out of which one technique is IOT (Internet of things). IOT has been the significant means to reduce costs, improve efficiency and achieve intelligent in the field of agriculture. The project aims at designing a smart wireless sensor network to monitor an agricultural environment. Here we mainly focus on monitoring soil moisture, humidity, water supply control and temperature of a particular farmland. And to monitor all the above things the sensors used here are soil moisture, humidity, and water level and temperature sensor respectively. The microcontroller will receive the information from all the sensors and display in an application.
