Abstract

The crop yield is mainly based on the amount of nutrient present in the soil. The objective of this research is to develop Internet of Thing (IoT) based smart irrigation system that will monitor and balance soil nutrient with adequate and efficient water utilization according to the climate and need for the specific crop system. The benefit of this system would reduce human intervention in the agricultural field and smartly manage farming by monitoring some of the parameters like pH, fertilizers and micronutrient of the soil. A microcontroller like the Arduino Uno R3 series and a set of soil parameter sensors were used with a programmed device. Such a program can be handled by any phone working on Android platform with a good user interface and proper notification regarding soil related issues. This application will be helpful for landlords, farmers and farm workers as they do not need technical knowledge in maintaining a farmland.

Keywords
