Smart Irrigation Control System

Sumeet Sarode


Abstract: Around 38 percent of the total land area of the planet is categorized as cultivable land or Agricultural land. Due to this, a large fraction of people earn their living through farming and take agriculture as their primary source of income. But the produce from this land depends mainly on proper irrigation which is suitable to the ambient climatic and atmospheric conditions. Irrigation can be defined as artificially supplying water to the land which is to be cultivated. Lack of proper Irrigation system can result in significant deterioration of the yield. Smart technologies can be used to automate the irrigation process based on the surrounding conditions. Smart Irrigation system automates the irrigation process and thus help in increasing the yield. This can be achieved using Internet of Things (IoT). IoT is the result of numerous advancements in Information and Communication Technology (ICT). It is a multidisciplinary concept that undertakes a wide range of technologies and is used to automate various processes which required humans to take actions. Automated control features with latest electronic technology using microcontroller which turns the pumping motor ON and OFF on detecting the dampness content of the earth and GSM phone line is proposed after measuring the temperature, humidity, and soil moisture. This can also be achieved by placing various valves which are responsible for the flow of the water and its direction.
