INTERACTIVE IRRIGATION SYSTEM THROUGH MOBILE WITH IVR RESPONSE

Abstract

Now a day’s Constant electricity fluctuation and irregular power availability for irrigation are daily problems faced by many farmers for a long time. Though many farmers use diesel operated pumps, a suitable alternative, which requires neither diesel nor electricity and yet meets their irrigation requirements may be welcome. And also in home power will be wasted in so many situations due to those situations electricity bill increases. To rectify such type of problems we developed a device which is for use of controlling Motor pumps from any location. It is a mobile based remote control system [7] for switching on/off and monitoring the water pumps, by using which a farmer or a person can be free from so many routine problems associated with timely irrigation, saving a lot of water, electricity, fuel, time, cost effective. The way of it works is, Motor Pump is connected to the device. Mobile is kept near device which can trigger the motor pump to start and stop. Whenever power comes at field then an automatic call [9] from system to the user to indicate power status. The person has to just call to Mobile kept near to the Motor pump and has to press his code to Start or Stop the Motor with IVR [10] response. He can also know whether the power is present or not and know the motor status.
