Abstract
A system of remote monitoring and automation apiary has been developed. This is a low-cost and scalable solution designed for deployment in distant rural areas. An unconventional solution is applying the industrial standard Modbus protocol to transfer data from the hives to a central server. This made it possible to reduce the cost of the system and standardize it. Monitoring the temperature and humidity inside the hives is important for analyzing the condition of bee colonies. The automation of the temperature and humidity control process is implemented based on a fuzzy model of the servo drive of the hive door.
