Smart irrigation system using machine learning

Abstract

The main goal of this project is to design an automation system to manage the irrigation system in the farm lands and make sure that there is equal amount of water to all the crops across the whole field. This project would prove be better than manual operation, as it difficult to operate due to possible human negligence and higher maintained and staff cost. Generally, the farmers be contingent on the rain to water their crops, then once there is no rain they water their crops with available water resource. This requires manual checking of the fields and switching on/off the motor. This leads in wastage of time and energy. The farmers need to check their farms regularly in order to determine if sufficient amount of water is given to the farms. The introduction of automatic irrigation helps the farmers to water the plants and also save the water resource without any human interpretation.  This project aims to help to help farmers in managing the irrigation system and reduce the water wastage.
