Project Overview :
• Monitor the moisture content of the soil using a
soil moisture sensor.
• Turn the motor ON when the soil moisture falls
below a certain reference value
Abstract :
• Water management in agriculture is crucial for efficient
resource utilization and optimal crop growth.
• This project focuses on the development and implementation of
an automated water irrigation system using IoT technology.
• The objective is to design a system that enables precise and
automated irrigation control based on real-time data and sensor
feedback.
Objective :
• The objective of our project is to conserve water, promote
plant health, save time and labor, and provide precise
control over the irrigation process.
• It achieves these goals by efficiently delivering the
appropriate amount of water to plants at the right time,
based on factor soil moisture.
Introduction
• An automated irrigation system is a technological solution that
revolutionizes the process of watering plants or crops.
• It replaces manual irrigation methods with a system that uses
sensors, controllers, and actuators to automate the watering
process.
• This advanced system monitors and adjusts the irrigation
schedule based on various factors such as soil moisture levels
Working :
Sensors:
Soil moisture sensors are placed in the soil at strategic
locations within the irrigation zone. These sensors
measure the moisture content of the soil and provide
data to the system.
Arduino UNO
The controller is the brain of the automated irrigation system.
It receives information from the soil moisture sensors and
other input devices, such as weather sensors or timers. Based
on this data, the controller makes decisions regarding when
and how much water to deliver to the plants .
Water Source:
The automated irrigation system is
connected to a water source, such as a well,
municipal water supply, or a water storage
tank. The system ensures a reliable water
supply for irrigation
Program :
The controller uses this programming to determine when to activate the valves and for how long
Components Needed:
● Arduino UNO
● Soil moisture sensor
● Relay
● Water pump
● Battery
● Jumper wires

YES
Applicaations:
• Irrigation in fields without manpower
• Irrigation in gardens, parks
• Efficient for paddy, rice fields
Advantages:
Highly sensitive, low cost and reliable
works according to soil condition
complete elimination of man power
can handle heavy loads
Automatically fertigate crops
( fertilize + irrigate = fertigate)
Conclusion :
● Automated water irrigation systems optimize water usage by delivering water
only when and where it is needed. This leads to water conservation, preventing
overwatering and minimizing water waste.
● The automation of irrigation tasks saves time and labor. Manual intervention and
supervision are reduced, allowing users to focus on other important activities.
This is particularly beneficial for large-scale agricultural operations, where
manual irrigation would be time-consuming and labor-intensive.
