Abstrakt: This paper presents an irrigation system that controls the water distribution and determines the amount of water to be provided for a given area in the farm. The computed amount of water was based on the data gathered from the environmental sensors and actuators installed in the farm. Brassica Rapa, or commonly known as Chinese cabbage were the crop being cultivated when the study was conducted. The system was composed of a microcontroller with the integration of environmental sensor node and actuator node; the actuator node composed of rain gauge and flow meter and the sensor node which was composed of temperature and humidity sensor. Each node serves as an IoT device. A web application presents the environmental parameters being monitored and the controls of each node and configuration settings for irrigation. It shows the maximum, minimum, current and the average readings for the temperature and humidity sensor. For the computation of the amount of water for irrigation, it was based on the Hargreaves –Samani empirical formula for the computation of the daily Reference Evapotranspiration, ETo.
