Automated Water Source Scheduling System with Flow Control System

Too much application of fertilizer can kill the plants and in irrigation, little by little application of fertilizer is better than one time bigtime fertilizing the plants. Water scarcity is also a major concern in irrigation. To solve the shortage of water sources, management and optimization of water sources is needed. The aim of this study is to develop a scheduling system of water sources: water with fertilizer, pond water, and ground water using Arduino and DS3231 Real Time Clock. Also, a flow control system is added to increase the efficiency of water use. The system was implemented in a controlled environmental chambers. Based on the result, the system design has been successfully functional and operational.
