Abstract

As we all know that plants require more water and sunlight for their efficient growth. Due to daily activities we often forget to water the plants. This may lead to the death of plants in our garden. Farmers may be unable to look after the crops due to various reasons such as health issues, out of station. In the case of crops, this may lead to decrease in its production or yield. Then farmers have to bear the loss. To overcome all such losses, we want to introduce an automated irrigation system. With the help of this automated irrigation system, you need not worry about the supply of water to your plants in your garden or crops in your fields. To develop this system, we have to consider some factors from the soil and atmosphere, so we use some sensors to detect those factors from the soil and from the atmosphere. Over all this system is developed based on Internet of Things (IOT) which uses sensors and their connections. Based on the requirements to the plant, this system releases the required amount of water. In this way the plant will always get water whenever it is needed, so if we forget to water them for some days it won’t matter. Farmers will also be quite happy that they should not have to watch after every time for the supply of water to their fields.
