Automatic Crop Securing System Using IoT

In terms of the development of a country's economy, agriculture is crucial as it is the main source for the survival of human life. But due to unexpected or unseasonal rains, there are lots of issues where farmers suffer a lot as the crops are destroyed and washed away due to heavy rains. By considering this issue we build our project which helps the farmers to be free from worries when there are heavy unexpected rains. The model which we built helps the farmers from unseasonal rains and saves water. This saved water can be used for various purposes and the main use among it is can reuse the saved water for farming, which decreases the regular water usage for the farmers. In this model, an automated sheet is inculcated which works by taking the inputs from the rain sensor and moisture sensor and protecting the whole field from unexpected or unseasonal rains. When it rains, the rain sensor turns on, and the soil sensor embedded in the ground begins responding to how much water is in the soil. If there is more water in the soil than is necessary, the controller receives the inputs which indicate the DC motor to run which opens the sheet automatically to close the crops using a polystyrene sheet. If there is any issue opening the sheet, information is passed to the farmers and then the operation is performed manually.
