Abstract

Agriculture is the most important necessity in life because it provides food, feed, and fiber that all humans need to live. The way you live depends on how much money you have. Precision farming is done to apply enough treatments at the right time and in the right place. To provide low-input, high efficiency, and sustainable agricultural production at all times. Automation in the agricultural system is becoming increasingly important. A technique for irrigating crops is proposed in this work, and it is fully automated. To link the system to the internet, the Nodemcu module is utilized. Sensors are utilized to determine the amount of moisture present in the soil, and water is delivered to the soil through a motor pump to keep it wet. Through the use of an Android application, the Internet of Things (IoT) is being utilized to tell farmers about the availability of water to the land. Every time water is applied to the soil, the farmer will be informed of this event.

Keywords
