Automated Irrigation System using WSN & monitoring Over IOT

Agriculture is the backbone of Indian Economy. Because without agriculture living is impossible since agriculture produces the main source of food for us. The farmer has to toil himself day in day out to produce the crop which brings him little revenue, so he has to try some other options for his sustenance, also today the availability of labor for carrying out agriculture activities is less. Therefore the automation in agriculture process is needed. In agriculture field major portion of population is employed. These are ground surface and underground sources. These are lakes, wells, rivers etc. on earth 97% is of water is in form of ocean and is saline water. For living being the total fresh water available for use is about only 2.6% and 0.6%. Thus limited water is present on earth to survive. The problem will be created for the coming next generation if the water is not properly utilized. Hence, it's time to conserve water using science and technology[1]. Water management is essential in agriculture as it use largest fresh water. The success of irrigation management system however depends on the timely application of the water required to meet the water needs of crops.
