Panhala (Maharashtra, India) ---------------------------------------------------------------------***-----------------------------------------------------------------1.2 Objective Abstract - Because of the large population, human requirements are also growing daily. The issues are growing at the same time. Water scarcity is one of the most significant issues, and it has an impact on agriculture. It consumes a lot of water. Consequently, a system that uses water in the required amount efficiently is needed. An example of this kind of system is a "SMART IRRIGATION SYSTEM." It is built on the Internet of Things, or IOT. Both water and labour are saved by this approach. According to the needs of the crops, water will be delivered in this method. The soil moisture sensor will detect moisture for this autonomous system, and the outcome will be passed to the ESP8266 Wi-Fi.
The key goal is to use the system to improve the soil's health, which will benefit the plant as a result. Recently, farmers have come to rely on remotely controlled integrated irrigation systems in order to save energy, time, and money.
2. Need of Smart Irrigation System Compared to conventional irrigation systems, smart irrigation systems have a number of benefits. By taking into account factors like soil moisture, intelligent irrigation systems can adjust water levels. Wireless moisture sensors are used for this, which assist the system determine whether or not the landscape requires watering by communicating with the smart irrigation controls. Your landscape and irrigation demands will be easier to manage thanks to the smart irrigation system, and you'll also have peace of mind knowing that it can make decisions on its own if you're not there. Your smart irrigation system will optimize resources so that everything gets what it needs without causing unnecessary waste, which will result in significant savings on your water bills.

INTRODUCTION One of the industries that generates revenue for our nation's economy is agriculture. According to their motto, "agriculture is life for more than 85%," the government has increased funding for technology development to boost agricultural output. In drylands, conserving water is the most crucial issue. It is crucial for the survival of the plants as well. We made the decision to attempt and increase the effectiveness of water consumption in irrigation systems in light of these facts in order to address a portion of the issue. Recent technology advancements can improve or replace traditional water distribution methods. We intend to use it to increase the effectiveness of water distribution, simplify the process of managing irrigation, and offer simple programming.
3. Literature Survey Alagupandi et al. (2014): propose a simple and cost-effective smart irrigation system. The system is modelled in an outdoor environment using Tiny OS-based IRIS motes to measure the moisture level of the paddy field. Moisture sensors measure the soil moisture level. The system sets a threshold value, and if the voltage exceeds that threshold, then it represents the driest soil. The proposed system has a better visualization and monitoring GUI. The motor automatically switches on by pressing the button on the visualization panel. AIS works with the help of the MOTEWORKS visualization tool. The visualization tool optimizes the use of water and fertilizer and maintains soil moisture.
1.1 Problem Statement Traditionally, humans carried out each stage. Nowadays, some systems make use of technology to cut down on labour costs or plant-watering times. Such systems have extremely limited control, and a lot of resources are still being squandered. Water savings are not taken into account when using standard irrigation systems. Because the water is applied directly to the soil, plants are put under a lot of stress by changes in soil moisture, which reduces plant look. There are currently rising global water crises, and it is now a significant responsibility to manage the scarcity of water. Countries with a lack of water resources and weak economies can observe this expansion. Therefore, this is a significant issue for agriculture.

Vidadala et al. (2015): The implementation of agricultural automation systems using WEB and GSM technologies. This embedded project is to design and develop a low-cost system that is based on an embedded platform for agricultural automation. Optimum usage of water is the main objective of this system. This project uses soil moisture sensors and temperature sensors to detect the water quantity present in agriculture, and a water level sensor is used to detect the water level in a tank. In this system, we monitor the status of
