Moisture detection and water control
Growers all over the world are using the Internet of Things to reduce their consumption of water and fertilizers, cut waste and improve the quality or yield of their products. Examples range from tracking microclimates across cropland, to closely monitoring temperature changes and humidity levels as perishable goods move from field to warehouse to store in order to extend their shelf life and eliminate waste. Tech providers are helping them with tools such as drone imagery and soil sensors, which measure real-time conditions. According to The Nature Conservancy, such precision agriculture can enable farmers to cut water and fertilizer use by up to 40 percent, without reducing yields. By improving the irrigation efficiency in agricultural sector, these industries become more competitive and sustainable. Also, in dry areas, where there is no sufficient rainfall, proper irrigation is not possible. Hence by using this irrigation system by monitoring the moisture content of soil are can meet the water requirements necessary for the field. To save effort of farmers, the important considerations are water and time. In present condition, they need to wait until field is fully watered. This restricts them to do other activities. This idea is not only meant for farmers but also for watering the plants. In our present era, the farmers are irrigating their crops at regular interval of time. The techniques they use will consume more water by creating water logging and results in water wastage. This system that we designed will completely eliminate the stress of manual Labor. Two types of soils have been tested and it will only work when the soil condition is dry Agriculture is the backbone of all developed countries. It uses 85% of available fresh water resources worldwide and this percentage continues to be dominant in water consumption because of population growth and increased food demand. Due to this efficient water management is the major concern in many cropping systems in arid and semi-arid areas. Arduino based plant communicator helps the farmer by checking the moisture of the soil and if the moisture is below the level then automatic water is irrigated. Over irrigation occurs because of poor distribution or management of waste water, chemical which lead to water pollution. Under irrigation leads to increase soil salinity with consequent build up of toxic salts on the soil surface in areas with high evaporation. To overcome these problems and to reduce the man power plant communicator system has been use.
Water is vital for the growth of plants. And, there can be no plants or crops if they do not have access to water in some form. It is, thus, crucial to supply water to crops and plant in time as per their need. The supply of water to plants comes from various water resources For example Wells, ponds, lakes, canals and much more method of irrigation
The main aim of this project is to create plant communicator device based on Arduino which help us to monitor moisture, temperature, humidity and irrigate if the moisture level is below.Reduce all the below Fector:
Create a plant communicator device based on Arduino, Moisture, Temperature and Use Arduino IDE for coding in Arduino device and various dependencies.
