Why a Scarecrow/Shooo Boar???

• Bhutan is still a developing country where maximum population owns/depends on farming. Every year farmers lose their crops to wild animals.According to our Local News, farmers in the country on average lose about 8.250 metric tonnes of crops worth Nu.171.75 million every year to the wild animals which is alot in this small country. Hence safe guarding the crops seems to be one of the essential problems for the farmers.
• So I've come up with the idea to build a scare crow which will be easy to operate, user friendly, durable and cheap.
• This is one of the Articles that I referred and even this.

• From the Map above, we can see that Wild boars are spread all over the country effecting the crops.
• So I've decided to focus on chasing the Wild boars and designing my Scare crow to keep the Boars away.

• These are some of the images where crops have been destroyed by Wild boar.

How does it Work?

1. The model will be placed in the fields. THe LDR sensor will sense the light(natural night), so as soon as it gets dark, the LEDs will lit up which will show some presence of human in the field.
2. The model will also have a body temperature sensor which will sense the presence of animals or even human and the output to that will be the speaker, which will work as a siren to chase away the animals from harming the crops.
