dc.description.abstract Agricultural parameters need constant controlling and monitoring to ensure that the crop fields are well taken care of. With the use of wireless sensor network technology crop fields can be continuously controlled and monitored. Therefore a proposed idea is to establish a system which consists of multiple mobile base stations forming a network to control and monitor field crops over a large area or different locations. The connection between different sensor nodes will be through wireless sensor network and between different base stations will be through Ethernet. The sensors are wirelessly interfaced with each other so they can communicate and form a network. This system is advantageous as it enables the farmers or users to control and monitor crop fields in faraway areas, reduces the consumption of energy, easy to implement and effectively saves the lifetime of a sensor network. en_US
