A Conservative Approach With Smart Irrigation System Rohit Nikhade, Shreya Armarkar, Leena Sathawane,Mangesh Pole

------------------------------------------------------------------***------------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract: Clean Water is one of the rarest existing elements present on the earth. So the measure should be taken to conserve it. Coming towards the agriculture which is the base of Indian economy the methods used are still the traditional. This leads to improper use of water. So to meet those requirements the aim is to design the Smart Irrigation System based on the sensors. This System would seek the purpose with the help of moisture and temperature sensors. The moisture sensors and temperature sensor will detect the actual moisture level and temperature give the parameter to the microcontroller and hence the left work will be done on those parameters by sensors. The total system will efficiently meet the water requirements by conserving water and will ease the tradition irrigation system.

3.LITERATURE SURVEY

In this current era the world has facing problem of water . As we all know water is basic need of Agriculture. The Irrigation known as Drip irrigation could be one of the solution to this problem as it save large amount of water. But this not the proper solution to this problem because we can’t predict amount of water required for crops. Sometime water may be given in excessive amount or vice versa [1][2]. The water in this system will provide a smarter way for irrigation. This system is an attempt towards the smart irrigation system concept. An electronic device is responsible for sensing the temperature and Moisture conditions. Along with it a Bluetooth devise is added to the hardware device. The sensed environmental conditions are taken and sent to the Server, which has a MySQL database for storage of records. The sensor node is deployed in irrigation field for sensing soil moisture value and the sensed data is sent to controller node. On receiving sensor value the controller node checks it with required soil moisture value. When soil moisture in irrigation field is not up to the required level then the motor is switched on to irrigate associated agriculture field and alert message is send to registered mobile phone. Smart irrigation systems estimate and measure diminution of existing plant moisture in order to operate an irrigation system, restoring water as needed while minimizing excess water use. The effects of the applied amount of irrigation water, irrigation frequency and water use are particularly important. To improve water efficiency there must be a proper irrigation scheduling strategy.

3.1 Automated Irrigation System Using a Wireless Sensor Network and GPRS Module. The system which work automatically for Irrigation with the use of WSN and GPRS module is having the main goal to optimize the usage of water. This type of system is generally consists soil moisture and temperature sensor in WSN within a distributed network. The unit known as gateway is mainly purposed to transfer the data from sensing unit to base station, then actuator perform the function to control the irrigation on given commands and also manage the data from sensing unit. For controlled water supply over field in required and depending upon the condition of field the specialized algorithm is used. The main function of algorithm is to give commands to actuator to provide controlled quantity of water through valve, this algorithm is programmed into microcontroller. METHODOLOGY: System computation is totally based on micro-controller. The automated irrigation is served by WSN in order to save water. The soil moisture sensor and soil temperature sensor gives Live readings. The device present sensor node are soil moisture sensor, temperature sensor, microcontroller unit and transceiver. The data gathered from sensor is transmitted to microcontroller and communicatin form gateway to particular node is done through Xbee WPAN IEEE 802.15.4. This data is transferred to remote location with help of cellular network.. It uses GPRS protocol. Internet connection allows data inspection of current soil moisture and temperature value and there graphical representation is simple to take decision.

2. OBJECTIVE: The main objective of this system is to provide correct values of sensors on android app . by using this app user can ON/OFF node using blue-tooth , .and by using this values water can be supplied to the farm. To make better use of our freshwater resources, growers need to have not only an efficient method of delivering the water to the plants, but also an efficient watering scheam, so that the plants are getting watered with the right amounts at the right time

LIMITATION: Automated irrigation system uses only two parameters of soil like soil moisture and temperature other parameters humidity, light, air moisture, soil ph value not taken for decision making. This system works on soil moisture and temperature sensor threshold value. It just shows the soil condition and system take decision on threshold value these are
