Abstract: |
In the field of agriculture two things are important, first the fertility of the soil and second, moisture content present in the soil. These two factor decide that how well will be the growth of seeds or content present in the soil are sufficient for the showing of seeds. Moisture of the soil depends on how much content of water is present in soil. Moister present in soil is dependent on type land and climates conditions present wither rainy region, dry region, and hot tropical. In recent time there is advancement in technology used in agriculture changing the phase of agriculture. Irrigation of farming is completely different from ancient method of irrigation as new method like drip irrigation is used by farmers. Farmer use using traditional method of irrigation waste lot of water, up to 60% and Drip irrigation helps to reduce this percentage of waste water. Drip method using present day are automatic, wireless sensors, all based on microcontroller monitored by remote from the base station. These wireless sensors collect all the data related to soil moisture, fertility, chemical ingredient, requirement of pesticides and after analyzing this gathered information alert for a better plan for irrigation for particular crop. |
