Cooperative Automatic Irrigation System using Arduino

Getie Dereje Derib

Abstract: This paper presents an effective system of irrigation. The designed system basically have two inputs and two outputs. The inputs are moisture sensor and level sensor whereas the outputs are pumping motor and a solenoid valve. What makes this project unique is a level sensor and moisture sensor works together for the efficient use of irrigation. The level sensor determines our pumping motor to run or not for fetching water from the ground to a reservoir. The moisture sensor determines whether the plant must be irrigated or not by measuring the water content of the soil in which the plant grow up. We can turn on and off the valve using soil moisture sensor alone but what is going to be done suppose the water in our reservoir gets finished during irrigation time. Absolutely there must be a man to take the sake of pouring water. This project makes things easier, simple and time efficient at low power consumption. No one can have a doubt regarding the idea because a human being has had alive in cultivation indeed.
