Abstract: A resource that all living species need is Water. It is therefore very precious and for enhancing agricultural productivity it is the critical input. There for expansion, of irrigation has been a key strategy in the development of
agriculture in country. Today, farmer shaves several issues in agriculture due to lack of rain sand scarcity of water. The main motto of this paper to save time, money and power of farmer with an automatic irrigation system Manual intervention is required for the traditional farmland techniques. Human intervention can be minimized with the automated technology of irrigation. By using soil moisture sensor levels of soil moisture/humidity can be checked.
Whenever there is a change in Humidity /moisture in the soil this sensor senses the change and an interrupt signal is passed to the micro controller and depending on this the irrigation system works. The automated irrigation system provides a web interface to the user so that the user can monitor and control the system remotely i.e., can make the irrigation system ON and OFF remotely.
