ELECFREAKS Smart Agriculture Kit Tutorial | Soil Moisture Sensor

Learn how to use the Soil Moisture Sensor from the ELECFREAKS Smart Agriculture Kit with a micro:bit.

In this step-by-step tutorial, I explain how the soil moisture sensor works, show you how to connect and wire the circuit, code it in Microsoft MakeCode, and then test it using a real pot plant.

You will also see how to display the soil moisture reading on an OLED screen and plot the sensor data as a live graph on the micro:bit LED display.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to:
- Connect the Soil Moisture Sensor to the ELECFREAKS Smart Agriculture Kit
- Wire the circuit correctly
- Code the sensor using micro:bit MakeCode
- Display soil moisture readings on an OLED screen
- Plot changing soil moisture data on the micro:bit
- Test the sensor using soil in a pot plant
- Create a warning when the soil becomes too dry and needs watering

Soil moisture sensors are commonly used in smart farming and automated irrigation systems. By monitoring how much moisture is in the soil, farmers can make better decisions about when crops need watering and avoid wasting water.

This project is a great introduction to smart agriculture, environmental monitoring, coding, sensors and precision farming. It is perfect for students and teachers learning about micro:bit, STEM, Digital Technologies and the future of farming.
