Sustainable Agriculture Support
Crowdfunding
Time to Peel
I launched Time to Peel to turn my research on sustainable agriculture into community action. Through an online fundraising campaign, I promoted sustainable consumption with a reward-based model featuring eco-friendly goods, including orange-peel hourglasses.
The campaign raised ₩978,000, which I donated to agricultural and environmental organizations. I also brought my research into practice by providing eco-friendly fertilizers to local farmers and our school farm, while developing a mini smart-farm prototype to automate watering.
Smart Farm
I designed and built a mini smart-farm prototype using Arduino-based sensors and automated control systems. The system monitors soil moisture, temperature, and humidity, then responds by activating irrigation and ventilation when environmental conditions move beyond preset thresholds.
I developed the hardware layout, assembled the circuit, and programmed control features including automatic watering, hysteresis-based temperature and humidity regulation, and fan-failure role switching. The prototype was created as a small-scale model for automating crop care during periods when the school farm is unattended.
