ABSTRACT

Poultry production is one of the most important fields for providing food sources for protein in Indonesia. Hatching is one of the processes in poultry farming. Many researchers use egg incubators to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of poultry chicks. However, there is a limited production of poultry chicks caused by low hatchability of eggs in the hatching machine. In addition, hatching using brood stock or natural sources has a 90% success rate. Therefore, a tool is needed to monitor the optimal conditions that the brood stock provides to the eggs, such as temperature, humidity, and egg turning during the hatching process. The method used in this poultry hatching monitoring tool was adapted from the waterfall method, which consists of analysis, design, implementation, and testing. The poultry hatching monitor consisted of hardware: NodeMcu, MPU6050 sensor, DHT2 sensor, and IC 74HC138. In addition, it uses Arduino IDE technology, Apache Web Server, the C programming language, and PHP. This tool receives and processes data from the sensor readings and sends them to the MySQL database. The data received is displayed in the form of tables and graphs in real-time. This tool successfully applies several sensor functions in one tool, and the results of the sensor readings can be stored and displayed on a web page. Tests were conducted to determine the accuracy of the tool by comparing the sensor readings with those of the reference measuring device. From the sensor test results, the accuracy level was ± 0.1 ℃ for the temperature sensor, ± 3.5% relative humidity for the humidity sensor, and ± 0.5^o for the angle sensor.
