Fertilizer Sensing and Solar based RTC Water Pumping

Abstract

Many developments have happened in the recent times by applying new technologies in various fields. Precising to agriculture, use of these technologies not only save time and energy but also bring advancements to various processes. Using agricultural technologies for irrigation and fertilizer sensing eases work to farmers one of which including use of Solar Power for automatic water pumping to conserve energy. Fertilizers content in soil causing soil and water pollution cannot be neglected. Hence, this system has been proposed to know if fertilizers are being used in required amounts. A Solar based water pumping is also present additionally to pump water based on soil moisture. A RTC is used to keep track of soil moisture thus pumping water over a fixed interval of time.
