Abstract:
The modern challenge for improving plant growth and reducing costs justifies the development of an Automated Irrigation System that will minimize the wastage of water and reduce labor and monitoring overhead. The key objective of this project is to develop an indigenous low cost solar powered irrigation and fertigation system controlled by a microcontroller. The microcontroller performs user defined functions by monitoring the set point of the soil moisture sensors along with humidity and temperature sensors and outputs commands to drive appropriate actuators (relay, solenoid valves, motor).
