Abstract

Automatic irrigation involves using a gadget to control irrigation systems to change the flow of water from a creek even when there is no irrigation. Given that the Indian population is over 1.2 billion and growing rapidly, significant food shortages could arise in 30 to 40 years, necessitating greater agricultural productivity. Farmers are currently grappling with both water scarcity and lack of rain. Traditional field watering processes require human work. Automation in irrigation equipment minimizes the need for human involvement. These sensors provide an interrupt signal to the microcontroller when it observes changes in the temperature and humidity of the environment. The main objective of this paper is to investigate more about automatic irrigation systems along with key benefits. With the help of this clever irrigation system for future potential, plants can be watered for longer periods, while still achieving the best possible conditions for growth. It saves time and provides automatic watering by incorporating temporary delays depending on environmental factors.
