Automated Irrigation System for Agriculture

About 70% of Indian population does the farming, and hence the Research and Development in this area is very much needed. This article presents a beginner model of an irrigation system to increase agricultural productivity and quality. The significant variables influencing farm productivity, development and quality are temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide concentrations and many others. The proposed system periodically measures these parameters and is reported on the website. This study tries to automate the irrigation process in farmland by controlling the soil's water level relative to the grown plant and spraying water to simulate the impact of rain and mobile phones on simple access for farmers or farm professionals. By tracking these parameters on an ongoing basis, the farmer can evaluate the ideal environmental circumstances and act accordingly to obtain maximum crop productivity and further gain energy savings. The proposed system is tightly coupled with latest technological advancements including Cloud computing, Internet of Things and others.
