Abstract

Sensor Over-Irrigation Under-Irrigation Micro-controller precision irrigation Internet of things (IoT)
The impart of climatic change apparently affect accessibility of good water for agriculture irrigation system in addition to human dependency and demand on farm products for survival, increases water unavailability challenges in the farm affecting ecosystem when there is no balance between country food production capacity and population growth. Agricultural sector is challenged with unequal distribution of water in the farm plantations reducing food production strength, this is more severe in under-developing regions whereby require smart irrigation systems as promising solution to mitigate against threat of water distribution to farm products. This research work design and develop smart irrigation system with less expensive micro-controller components, implementing water distribution system using sensor captured information of soil condition, infusing precision irrigation system that calculate and supplies exact water require based on soil dryness level. The research adopts internet of things IoT technology where sensor will be used to monitor and capture soil information and control water distribution based on available soil dataset. The outcome of the research gives absolute control on over-irrigation and under-irrigation system that increases agricultural productions with advance technological means, precision irrigation system mechanisms reduces water wastage and ensure equal distributions. Multivariate soil type test will greatly enhance general acceptability of this concept in cross-functional regions.
