Oleksii TOKARCHUK – Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor, head of the Department of Engineering Mechanics and Technological Processes at the Agricultural Complex of the Vinnytsia National Agrarian University (3, Solnyshchaya St., Vinnytsia, 21008, Ukraine, e-mail: tokarchyk08@ukr.net, https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8036-1743).
Technological progress is characterized by the continuous expansion of automation across all areas of human activity, transitioning from partial automation to comprehensive automation, and then from comprehensive automation to full automation, which ensures the highest technical and economic efficiency.
This work develops a generalized concept for implementing a microprocessor-based temperature monitoring and control system for greenhouse complexes. It is characterized by high adaptability to the size and needs of greenhouse enterprises, as well as high flexibility in applying primary temperature measurement transducers from different types and manufacturers. The mentioned microprocessor system is designed for use as both a subsystem for automated climate control of a greenhouse complex and as a standalone system for monitoring the temperature distribution gradient within the greenhouse.
The architecture and a generalized prototype of the software for the temperature monitoring system in greenhouse complexes have been developed. This system can be used in the construction of climate control systems for greenhouse complexes. In each section of the greenhouse, the air temperature is controlled at 6 measurement points, and the soil temperature is monitored at 6 measurement points. The data from the sensors are processed according to several algorithms – for each sensor, for a group of sensors, autonomously by the microprocessor controller (with only alarm messages transmitted to the operator station), or by the operator station, with continuous transmission of real-time data from the microprocessor controller.
The system's modular design allows for easy scaling and integration with other greenhouse management technologies, making it suitable for various agricultural applications.

Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC is a scholarly professional journal with a long-standing history and stable academic tradition, reflecting the evolution of engineering and technical sciences within the agro-industrial sector of Ukraine.
The journal was founded in 1997 under the title Bulletin of Vinnytsia State Agricultural Institute. According to the Resolution of the Presidium of the Higher Attestation Commission of Ukraine dated September 11, 1997, the publication obtained the status of a professional scientific journal, which enabled the publication of the main results of doctoral and candidate dissertations in technical sciences. From its inception, the journal positioned itself as an academic platform for addressing current issues of mechanization, electrification, and technical support of agricultural production.
During 2001–2014, the journal was published under the title Proceedings of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University. Series: Technical Sciences (State Registration Certificate of Print Media KV No. 16644-5116 PR dated April 30, 2010). Throughout this period, a systematic approach to the selection and peer review of scientific manuscripts was established, the thematic scope of publications was expanded, and continuity of scientific directions as well as the development of sectoral engineering schools was ensured.
Since 2015, the journal has been published under its current title, Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC (State Registration Certificate No. 21906-11806 R dated March 12, 2016). The change of title reflected the expansion of the journal’s thematic coverage and its orientation toward interdisciplinary research in mechanical engineering, energy systems, electrical engineering, transport technologies, automation, and digital solutions for the agro-industrial complex.
The journal consistently adheres to the principles of open science. All published materials are distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0), ensuring open access to research results provided proper attribution to the authors and the original publication is maintained.
At present, Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC is an authoritative professional scientific journal (Category B), providing a platform for the publication of fundamental and applied research results, promoting the integration of education, science, and industry, and contributing to the advancement of engineering and technological support of the agro-industrial complex of Ukraine.
