0 likes124 views
The document proposes a smart drip irrigation system using IoT technology to automatically control irrigation based on sensor measurements of soil moisture, temperature, and humidity. Sensors would send data to a Raspberry Pi controller via WiFi to monitor conditions and control a water pump valve. The system aims to reduce water waste and labor needs while increasing agricultural efficiency and crop yields.

Abstract: Water is the importantsourceinhumanlife. Around
80 % to 90 % water used in agriculture field. As due to day by
day growth in globalization and population water
consumption is also increases. Today automation is one of the
important roles in agriculture field. Agricultureistheprimary
occupation in our country. India’s major income source is
depending on agriculture therefore the development of
agriculture is important. In today also most of the irrigation
systems are operated manually. The available traditional
techniques are like drip irrigation, sprinkler irrigation etc. By
the use of Drip Irrigation we can save water and fertilizer
provided to the crops. Whenever there is a change in
temperature, humidity and current status of rain of the
surroundings these sensors senses the change in temperature
and humidity and gives an interrupt signal totheraspberrypi.
This paper focuses primarily on reducingthewastageof water
and minimizing the manual laboronfieldforirrigationso that
you can save time, cash and power of the farmer.

1. INTRODUCTION
India is the country of village and agriculture plays an
important role for development of country. In our country,
agriculture depends on the monsoons which hasinsufficient
source of water. So the irrigation is used in agriculture field.
In Irrigation system, depending upon the soil type, water is
provided to plant. In agriculture, two things are very
important, first to get informationofaboutthefertilityof soil
and second to measure moisture content in soil. Nowadays,
for irrigation, different techniques are available which are
used to reduce the dependency of rain. And mostly this
technique is driven by electrical power and on/off
scheduling. In this technique, water level indicator placed in
water reservoir and soil moisture sensors are placed root
zone of plant and near the module unit handles the sensor
information and transmit data to the controller which in
turns the control the flow of water through the valves.
2. LIERATURE SURVEY
In[1] October 2017 .V. Vinoth Kumar, R.Ramasamy,
S.Janarthanan, M. VasimBabu anther tells that proposed
Irrigation system IoT is implemented, in this system all the
information that are received from the sensors and the
various parameters are given to the arduinouno
microcontroller as an analog input. A preset value of soil
moisture sensor is fixed in microcontroller and also for
fencing.
In[2] February 2017 ,Srishti Rawal author tells that
Automation of farm activities can transform agricultural
domain from being manual and static to intelligent and
dynamic leading to higher production with lesser human
supervision. This paper proposes an automated irrigation
system which monitors and maintains the desired soil
moisture content via automatic watering. Microcontroller
ATMEGA328P on Arduino platform is usedtoimplement the
control unit. The setup uses soil moisture sensors which
measure the exact moisture level in soil.
In [3] September 2017, Arif Gori, Manglesh author tells
about As water supply is becoming scarce in today’s world
there is an urgency of adopting smart ways of irrigation.The
project describes how irrigation can be handled smartly
using IOT. This project aims at saving time and avoiding
problems like constant vigilance. It also helps in conserving
water by automatically providing water to the plants/field
depending on the water requirements. This system can also
prove to be helpful in agriculture, parks and lawns.
In [4] March 2017, Dr.S.Jothi Muneeswari author tells about
automatic irrigation system using the Arduino
microcontroller with moisture sensor and water flow
management. The humidity sensor unit consists of an
Arduino board, Wi-Fi unit, Humidity sensor and water flow
control mechanism. The data taken from Humidity sensor
will be sending to data monitoringsystem byarduinoboards
over a wireless network using WiFi. At Monitoring system,
the humidity levels are monitored and any decrease in
humidity level below a limit will be reported as requirement
for water and signal is raised to the entire humidity sensor
unit to open the water flow management. Also, Humidity
level in agricultural field can be checked any time through
the web portal.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/irjet-v5i10124-181030090038/85/IRJET-Smart-Drip-Irrigation-System-using-IoT-1-320.jpg)

7. CONCLUSION
Automated drip irrigationis themost beneficial approachfor
the farmers. This system reduces the extra manpower tothe
farmer for his farm work like supplying water to plants,
safeguard the crop from intruders. The smart irrigation
system is suitable and cost effective for advance water
resources for agricultural production. The system would
provide feedback control system which will monitor and
control all the activities of plant growth and irrigation
system efficiently.

PROPOSED SYSTEM Fig: Block diagram 3.1 DISCRIPTION In the proposed system first on the AC supply it goes to the power unit then first check action is performed ON or OFF. Suppose action is on then it set the waterpump.Whenaction is off the power unit goes to the raspberry pi to perform the action. Then raspberry pi send to sensor for sense the value by using the internet module. Then sensor sense that value and send these value to the raspberry pi. Then raspberry pi send these value to the web server. And then web server compares the throughput value of the sensor and current value which send to raspberry pi. And send these comparable values to raspberry pi then raspberry pi perform the action. 3.2 ADVANTAGES • Increase in productivity. • Reduced water consumption. • No man Power Required. • Require smaller water sources. 4.
