Temperature and humidity are two of the rudimentary factors that must be controlled during egg incubation. Improper temperature and humidity levels during the incubation period often result in unwanted conditions. This paper proposes the design of an efficient Mamdani fuzzy inference system instead of the widely used Takagi-Sugeno system in this field for controlling the temperature and humidity levels of an egg incubator. Though the optimum incubation temperature and humidity levels used here are that of chicken egg, the proposed methodology is applicable to other avian species as well. The input functions have been used here as per estimated values for safe hatching using Mamdani whereas defuzzification method, Center of Area (COA), has been applied for output. From the model output, a stabilized heat from temperature level and fan speed to control the humidity level of an egg incubator can be obtained. This maximizes the hatching rate of healthy chicks under any conditions in the field.
