Smart Irrigation System

Abstract

With the increase in need of water for irrigation, there is also a case where we use more water for irrigation than it’s needed for crops. That results in the wastage of water and causes the problem in the growth of crops. To overcome this problem, this paper puts together a study of a system based on Irrigation using IOT (Internet of things). This system targets on sensing the soil moisture and temperature using the sensors and provide the data to the Thing speak server after which the farmer can decide whether to ON or OFF the pump.
