Abstract:
The concept of this project is to allow the owners of fields to control and observe the growth of their plants in their farms. This is achieved by using a smart platform of IoT and solenoid valves to control the flow of water based on the moisture of the soil and gives real time surveillance to the owners who stay far away from the farms. This project also allows surveillance on the personnel and their o to not occur losses. It is easy to use for anyone with a Smartphone and does not require maintenance once set up. A smart irrigation system that optimises water usage is developed. This system

The study evaluated the economic viability of rooftop gardening in Dhaka, Bangladesh, focusing on its potential for income generation and associated constraints. A total of 60 gardeners were selected as samples from Kalabagan, Mohammadpur, Mirpur, Banani, Cantonment and Uttara areas. The data was analyzed using a mixed-method approach that included both descriptive and statistical techniques. The study found that rooftop vegetable gardening is economically viable, with a benefit-cost ratio of 1.32, indicating that every unit of money invested, generated a positive return.

Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh and a city of at least 22.5 million people made it one of the most densely populated countries in the world which suffered unrecoverable damage to the green areas of the city (Nation, 2021). Having the most polluted air, the residents of this city are forced to live in a dusty, polluted, toxic, and poisonous environment. The rapid growth of Bangladesh`s capital has destroyed crucial ecosystems, caused rising temperatures, and quickly lost its green. One of the ways to bring back its green area, and good air in any particular area is “rooftop gardening”. Th

Dhaka is one of the world's most populated cities and lacks the open fields and greeneries required for healthy living. Whereas urban sustainability depends on the greenness of the environment and the reduction of food dependency on the rural supply, currently, the city is failing to meet both requirements. The aim of this research is to understand why rooftop gardening (RTG) has failed to find its place in the policy agenda of Bangladesh, despite having support from citizens and experts.

Abstract The rapid progression of urbanization has led to an increase in residential density, particularly in older communities, which now face significant challenges such as internal land pressure, low rates of vegetation, and inadequate waterproofing of structural elements, particularly floor slabs. These conditions necessitate urgent improvements to enhance urban livability and sustainability. In this context, the exploration of minimal transformation measures that can effectively revitalize rooftop spaces has become a viable strategy for urban renewal.

Abstract:
Rooftop gardening is one of the famous agricultural technology in urban areas of many countries including Bangladesh. Crop water requirement is very high in rooftop due to high temperature and high evapotranspiration. Irrigation as well as water management is the major limitation for this practice. Considering the necessity of rooftop gardening in urban areas and irrigation issue, it is essential to develop a low cost efficient irrigation method that helps to improve production techniques for rooftop garden. From this study, we developed a smart irrigation system for watering rooftop gardening

In addition to the normal benefits of a green roof, this high profile site would provide increased awareness of the benefits of rooftop greening in hopes of encouraging future such projects in Chicago and elsewhere.

Research on green roofs has focused on grasses, sedums, and forbs. The aims of this thesis were to determine the potential of rooftop gardens (RTGs) in an urban setting to reduce local levels of CO2, remediate storm water runoff, and provide boutique vegetables for a restaurant. The garden roof footprint was 238 ft2, with 14% covered by vegetated boxes. The soil mixture used had 96% absorbency with 54.12 gallons of the 55 gallons of precipitation that fell within the rain catcher boxes absorbed. Total biomass production was 37.98 Kg of wet biomass and 5.04 Kg of dry biomass. The amount of CO
