IOT Irrigation System

IOT Irrigation System:

IoT (Internet of Things) drip irrigation refers to the integration of IoT technology with drip irrigation systems. Drip irrigation is a water efficient method of delivering controlled amounts of water directly to the roots of plants through a network of tubes, pipes, and emitters. When combined with IoT , this traditional irrigation system becomes a smart and automated.

SPECIFICATIONS :

• Sensors: Soil moisture sensors are deployed in the field to measure the moisture content of the soil. These sensors are connected to the IoT network.
• Data Collection: The soil moisture sensors collect real time data on soil conditions. This data includes information about the moisture level in the soil.
• IoT Connectivity: The collected data is transmitted to a central IoT platform using wireless or wired connectivity. This platform could be cloud based, allowing for remote monitoring and control.
• Analysis and Decision Making: The IoT platform analyzes the data received from the sensors. Algorithms and predefined rules are often used to make decisions based on th e current soil moisture levels.
• Automated Control: The IoT system can automatically control the drip irrigation system based on the analyzed data. For example, if the soil moisture falls below a certain threshold, the system can trigger the irrigation system to supply water to the plants. This automation helps optimize water usage and ensures that plants receive the right amount of water.
• Remote Monitoring: U sers, such as farmers or gardeners, can remotely monitor the soil moisture levels and irrigation activities through a smartphone, tablet, or computer. Alerts and notifications may be sent if u nusual conditions are detected.

BENIFITS OF IOT DRIP IRRIGATION:

• Water Efficiency: The system optimizes water usage by providing irrigation only when necessary, reducing water wastage.
• Crop Health:Plants receive the right amount of water, promoting healthier growth and potentially increasing crop yields.
• Remote Management: Users can monitor and control the irrigation system from anywhere, providing flexibility and convenience.
