Abstract
This paper proposes a automated irrigation system in farming by solar energy. Smart irrigation system powered by solar energy offer several advantages for farmers. That sounds like a fantastic setup! Combining a solar-powered water pump equipped with a moisture sensor for automatic water flow controls offers a smart solution for optimizing irrigation efficiency. The moisture sensor can detect when the soil needs watering, allowing the system to deliver just the right amount of water precisely where and when it’s needed. This not only saves water but also optimizes crop growth by avoiding over or under watering. By harnessing solar energy, the system reduces reliance on grid power, saving electricity costs and reducing carbon footprint. Moreover the automatic water flow control helps minimize water wastage by delivering water directly to the plants root as needed, reducing losses due to evaporation or runoff. Additionally, storing excess solar energy in batteries ensures continuous operation even during periods of low sunlight or at night, enhancing the system’s reliability and efficiency. Overall, it’s a win-win for both farmers and the environment. Keywords: Smart irrigation, Solar Energy, Solar Panel, Pump, Battery, Moisture Sensor and Temperature Sensor.
