Abstract
This research investigates the significant economic challenges posed by agricultural irrigation, driven by high electricity, water, and labor consumption. The IoT Water Irrigation Solar System is developed to promote sustainable agricultural sector growth while minimizing environmental impact. Extensive land exploration for agriculture has resulted in substantial environmental pollution globally. The National Water Services Commission aimed for a per capita water consumption target of 180 liters daily by 2020. The labor force reduction in Malaysia in 2022 incurred a RM22 billion economic loss. Emphasizing renewable energy adoption, such as solar power, is crucial for conserving non- renewable resources. Soil moisture studies play a critical role in optimizing water usage for agriculture. The IoT Water Irrigation Solar System integrates moisture detectors, temperature and humidity sensors, and solar panels. Furthermore, the Blynk Application enhances remote monitoring and data recording capabilities for efficient plant management from distant locations.
