In India, agriculture is an important domain of research for food production. Insufficient, uncertain, and irregular rain causes problems in agriculture, and also, most of the annual rainfall occurs within less than 4 months, for which multiple cropping is not possible. Irrigation is a major influencing factor in agriculture as it solves all these problems. Irrigation helps in stabilising the output and yield levels. The sources of artificial irrigation are wells or canals or some reservoirs, and one also need extra labour to irrigate the fields. Automated and intelligent irrigation can solve many of these problems and reduce the human efforts. Moreover, it also improves the quality of the irrigation by reducing the dependency on the humans. It sends data wirelessly to a central server, which collects the data, stores it, and allow it to be analysed. The results and the collected data can be displayed and data sent to the phone whenever required. In this article, a description of such an intelligent and automated irrigation system is presented. |
