This document presents a project on an IOT based smart solar irrigation system. It discusses the need for such a system to automate agricultural processes and make it easier for farmers. The system uses sensors like soil moisture, temperature, and humidity sensors along with a PIR sensor placed in the plant's root zone. The sensors send data to a gateway unit which transmits it to a web application. The system aims to efficiently monitor and control irrigation based on sensor values. It is intended to save water, reduce labor costs and electricity usage while providing remote monitoring abilities to farmers.

3.  The farmer has to toil himself day in and day out
to produce the crop which brings him little
revenue, so he has to try some other options for
his sustenance, also today the availability of
labor for carrying out agricultural activities is
less, therefore the automation in agricultural
process is needed.
 The farmer can monitor whether everything is
going normal or some action is needed to be
taken. The entire process is controlled and
monitored by programmable controller.
 In this paper, soil moisture sensor, temperature
sensors ,humidity sensor, PIR sensor placed in
root zone of plant and gateway unit handles the
sensor information and transmit data to a web
application.

4.  Automated Irrigation System Using a Wireless Sensor Network and GPRS Module

and Miguel ÁngelPorta- Gándara
 The automatic system was tested for 136 days and save 90% compared with
traditional irrigation system. Three replicas of the automated system have been
used successfully in other places for 18 months. Because of its energy autonomy
and low cost, the system has the potential
 Automated Irrigation System Using Solar Power

 “This paper design a model of automatic irrigation system which is based on
microcontroller and solar power was used only for source of power supply.
Various sensor are placed in paddy field. Sensors sense water level continuously
and give the information to farmer through cellular phone. Farmer controls the
motor using cellular phone without going in paddy field. If the water level reaches
at danger level, automatically motor will be off without conformation of farmer.

5. Farmer experiences huge economic losses due to wrong prediction about
weather and wrong irrigation method. When the Wireless Sensor
Network is developed now it is very easy to apply them for increasing
the quality and quantity of crops.
We are overcome this problem by implementing this project.

6.  There is an urgent need for a system that makes the
agricultural process easier and burden free for a farmer.
 With the recent advancement of technology it has become
necessary to increase the annual crop production for country
like India which is entirely agro-centric economy.
 If the farmer is far from the agricultural land he will not
beable to notice current conditions in the farm. So, efficient
water management plays an important role in the irrigated
agricultural cropping systems.

7. ◦ In this project humidity sensor check humidity environment
◦ Temperature sensor check temperature of environment
◦ Soil moisture sensor checks moisture level of soil.
◦ If any sensor value changes than its set value, , at that time
through motor driver motor will gets on.
◦ All sensor values will be displayed on lcd.
◦ The result will be displayed on LCD.
◦ All sensor related data will be updated on web server using
IOT module.

9.  Its ability to save water.
 Traditional watering methods can waste as much as 50% of the water.
 Solar power is pollution free and causes no greenhouse gases to be emitted
after installation.
 cost-effective for enhancing the techniques to preserve water resources.
 Solar power is pollution free and causes no greenhouse gases to be emitted
after installation.
 This system conserves electricity by reducing the usage of grid power.

10.  High initial costs for material and installation and long ROI.
 Needs lots of space as efficiency is not 100% yet.
 No solar power at night so there is a need for a large battery bank.

11.  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. If rain gun sensor can be added so that when it rains
there won’t be floods. Rain water harvesting can be done and this
harvested water can be used to irrigate fields. We can also include
many more water quality sensors that affect the crops.
