Abstract

Abstract: Automation of farm activities can transform agricultural domain from being manual and static to intelligent and dynamic leading to higher production with lesser human supervision. This paper proposes an automated irrigation system which monitors and maintains the desired soil moisture content via automatic watering. SoC ESP8266 Wi-Fi module platform is used to implement the control unit. The setup uses soil moisture sensors which measure the exact moisture level in soil. This value enables the system to use appropriate quantity of water which avoids over/under irrigation and the ph sensor measure the ph value of water finally the DHT11 used to analysis the temperature of atmosphere. IOT is used to keep the farmers updated about the status of sprinklers. Information from the sensors is regularly updated on a webpage using internet through which a farmer can check whether the water sprinklers are ON/OFF at any given time. Also, the sensor readings are transmitted to cloud storage to generate graphs for analysis Keywords: Automation, SoC, ESP8266, DHT11, IOT, Cloud storage
