Abstract - Day by day population is growing and hence

The intelligent system will monitor the crop growth as per the environmental conditions. [14, 15], the collected raw data is used to analyse the exact water requirement [4]. This raw data collection is done by using sensors. This collected data is stored on cloud and has to compare with the standard crop data to generate exact need of water requirement for particular crop at particular day and time. The proposed concept focus on capacitive approach for soil moisture measurement. Use of IoT allows well planned irrigation scheduling by keeping mind the limited resources.

resource demand. Agricultural sector will play vital role in resource management. To fulfill the water need for agriculture effective water management will be most important and crucial parameter. In today’s environment evolution in technology is continuously happening in agriculture sector too. Internet of Things (IoT) is most promising technique that can be used to make irrigation system smart. IoT is shifting agriculture sector from factual to quantative approach. Iot sensors are capable to provide all necessary information related to farm, soil, crop etc. IoT has number of benefits in agriculture like monitoring, analysis and crop management. These sensors provides real time data which helps to get proper analysis and hence efficient water management can be done. This paper describes how IoT plays important role in making traditional irrigation system smart. It explains how data can be collected, analyzed and how this real time data is used to make smart irrigation system. The proposed system will help to manage water effectively, increase productivity.

Key Words: Internet of Things (IoT), Sensor, Cloud computing, Arduino, Soil Moisture, Capacitance

1. INTRODUCTION What is Internet of Things (IoT)? Connecting daily routine things embedded with electronics hardware, sensors, and software to internet enabling them to collect and exchange data. The devise communicates over the internet without needing a person to initiates the communication. IoT is fast developing technology in sectors like Agriculture, Heath care, Manufacturing, Supply chain, Smart cities etc. Electronics hardware is continuously developing day by day [2, 3] due to this IoT becomes more popular. To get real time data in physical word sensors are playing most important role [5].

Fig -1: IoT enabled system flow IoT enabled smart irrigation system has major components like physical structure of sensors and electronics hardware, collection of data, processing of gathered data, and last most important is analysis of data. The IoT enabled system must meet the sensor control while measuring the soil moisture, capacitance (Relevant approach), sensor node identification, hardware controlled devices. This action can be done by software or mobile application linked to internet. The system should focus on primary aspects like monitoring and managing functions. IoT gives rise to lots of solutions in agriculture sector. Among these few need to be highlighted.

In recent years with increase in agriculture production new technologies and introduced in the sector. This advances in agricultural technology leads to concept smart farming. In 21st century farmers are able to access internet, GPS, sensors etc. In order to create the smart irrigation system lots of work done has been done on IoT. The IoT significantly transformed the agricultural environment. IoT is giving answers on water crisis, yield issue, productivity. This cutting edge technology has solutions to improve the productivity, water management etc.
