IoT Based, Smart Irrigation Agricultural System using Arduino

Abstract

Abstract

This research paper describes about monitoring the farm by using Ardunio ATMEGA 328, using Internet of Things (IoT). Wild animals are special challenge for the farmers. Example, wild dogs, monkeys, etc…cause vandalize to crops. So, it is very important to monitor the nearby presence of animals. PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor is used for the detection of animal and theft from the outside of farms. The proposed monitoring scheme is to provide an early warning about possible vandalize and damage by wild animals. The water irrigation system is introduced to optimize the use of water supply for agricultural crops in area where low rain occurs, irrigation becomes difficult. It is needed to be automated for proper water supply and reduce farmer time and work. So, efficient water management makes an important role in the smart irrigation agricultural systems. This project uses temperature and humidity for measuring temperature and humidity in environment and soil moisture sensors to detect the water quantity present in the soil. The project uses Ardunio Uno microcontroller which is a controller to the whole process of irrigation and with the help of Wi-Fi monitoring the data on Thing Speak server. The aim of the implementation was to demonstrate that the water irrigation can be used to reduce water by using IoT.
