Abstract

The farming is important for life of most countries in the world and has influence on the economy. In dry or in case of inadequate rainfall areas the irrigation become difficult, therefore, it required to handled remotely for farmer safety the agro-resources and reduce harm the productivity. Farmers tend to over-irrigation the soil. Different kinds of soil required different irrigation schedules and the irrigation also depends on many other factors like wind speed, existing moisture level, temperature season, stage of growth of crop, etc. In This research suggests a smart farm consist of automated irrigation system with programmable schedule, automatic tank level controlling for storage water of irrigation, and temperature measurement of farm based microcontroller with desired sensors and network server (gateway) which was connected to the internet. This system can be monitored and controlled by using a website of network server over the internet from any location in the world.
