Abstract (2. Language):
The improvement in irrigation system using wireless network is a solution to achieve water conservation as well as improvement in irrigation practices. This research attempts to automate the process of irrigation on the farmland by monitoring the soil water level of the soil relative to the plant being cultivated and the adaptively sprinkling water to simulate the effect of rainfall. Central to this design is an Arduino Uno microcontroller which monitors the farm condition and controls the distribution of water on the farm. This irrigation system allows farmers to reduce runoff from over watering saturated soils, avoid irrigating at the wrong time of day and in effect improve the crop yield by ensuring adequate water supply when needed.
