CONCLUSION

This project is a combination of hardware and software. To make or design the new idea of the project, a research method is useful to design this project. The development of this DICM system is to reduce the human power in agriculture sector. This project can be apply at everywhere in agriculture sector that require to fertilizer and pesticide the plants. Besides that, this project very useful since it function can make the task become easier to the user and become more systematic in the future.
