An Automated Irrigation System: An IoT Application

Agriculture plays an important role in the development of the country and our country India is a global agricultural powerhouse. Agriculture and related activities provides livelihood to major part of ruler India and requires labour at major scale. This paper aims for a step in automation in Agriculture. It is an Integration of IoT with Agriculture. The Irrigation of farms can be done automatically, by considering two important factors i.e. soil moisture level and weather forecast .our aims is to get the moisture level from soil using moisture level sensor and weather forecast using API’s. After doing required calculation decision of field irrigation take place, in an automated manner also with user access to alter it. This project can reduce one of the biggest workloads in Agriculture and drive it towards the automation.
