Abstract:
India is top in the production of agricultural products and also faces many problems due
to lack of soil monitoring, water supply and its usage. We here by introducing this device mainly
for the farmers but also for other users who are indented to agriculture. They can even control
and know the status of the soil they cultivate using the technology IOT.
Internet of Things (IoT) technology has brought revolution to each and every field of
common man’s life by making everything smart and intelligent. IoT refers to a network of things
which make a self configuring network. The development of Intelligent Soil monitoring IoT
based devices is day by day turning the face of agriculture production by not only enhancing
it but also making it cost-effective, reducing wastage of water, fertilizers and time. The aim
/ objective of this report is to propose “IoT based Soil Monitoring and Automated Irrigation
System” assisting farmers in getting Live Data (Soil Moisture, Temperature and PH) for efficient
environment monitoring and for the sustainable usage of water and fertilizers. It will enable them
to increase their overall yield and quality of products, We also automate the irrigation system for
the farmers. The project being proposed via this report is integrated with Arduino Technology
mixed with different Sensors and a WiFi module producing live data feed that can be obtained
from an application developed using MIT app Inventor with Firebase. Even from the application
we can control the motor driver also by setting automatic or manual modes for irrigation.
