Intelligent Irrigation System with Monitoring and Control of Natural Parameter using IOT

Abstract

The goal of the solar powered drip irrigation technique is to lessen the quantity of water used in farming. The suggested module makes use of a microprocessor and other sensors, including those for monitoring soil moisture and temperature in root system belts and ultrasonic waves in the tank’s ceiling. The on-off cycling of the pump keeps the water level in the tank constant. The solenoid valve is then used to control the humidity and temperature. The user may monitor the farm in real time from any location thanks to a Wi-Fi module connected to the control unit that interprets sensor data, activates actuators, and broadcasts data over the internet. The volume of water provided to the region for irrigation and the pump to fill the tank are both governed by code programmed into the central controller, with the code being designed based on soil moisture, humidity, and temperature readings. The entire structure is run on clean, solar energy. Connected through wires are the sensor unit, actuator unit, and central control unit; the control unit then talks to the app via a wireless connection. This study’s principal objective is to lessen the need for the farmer to use his or her own two hands, hence reducing labour costs and maximising efficiency.
