Automated Plant Watering and Fertilizing with Soil Quality Testing

Abstract

India is mostly a farming nation. For most Indian households, agriculture is the most important line of work. It is essential to the growth of an agricultural nation. In India, agriculture accounts for 10% of total exports and roughly 16% of GDP. The primary resource for agriculture is water. Water can be supplied by irrigation, although there can sometimes be significant water waste. Consequently, in order to conserve time and water. Agriculture uses the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies a lot these days. As a result, this article discusses a project that is built on the Internet of Things (IoT) and focuses on the agricultural sector with the aim of reducing water usage in the sector. As a result, this essay discusses a project that leverages the Internet of Things (IoT), where all information can be accessed and managed at the touch of a finger, to reduce water consumption in the agricultural sector. We have an idea for a project called an Automated Plant Watering and Fertilizing with Soil Quality Testing. The proposed method makes use of a variety of sensors that sense the different aspects of the soil, such as temperature, humidity, and soil moisture sensors, automatically irrigate the land by turning the motor on and off depending on the soil moisture value.
