Abstract
IOT based smart agriculture is a breakthrough in the agriculture sector that gives better solution for water conservation, reduces labour cost, electricity conservation and helps the farmer to keep a record of his yields throughout the year on a wireless mode. This research paper deals with an IoT based application for sustained farm practice by sensing the soil moisture from the soil using the soil moisture sensor module, communicating over internet by the ESP-8266 Wi-Fi module that controls the switching of the submersible motor pump (motor driver-289D) via Arduino Uno R3. The communication request is created by the computer on the given web page of THINKSPEAK APP from the server which further displays the real time sensor values and the pump status in a graphical form. The prototype was designed and tested to sense the real time soil moisture values, send it to the Arduino via the serial communication over the ESP-8266 Wi-Fi module that further plots this value on the created THINGSPEAK channel and is made user-friendly via using virtuino app in the mobile, which enables the remote monitoring the soil moisture values and thus assisting the control of the water pump.
