IoT-Enabled Zero Water Wastage Smart Garden
In underdeveloped and developing countries, irrigation is the most difficult aspect of agriculture. The main reason for this is that there isn’t enough rain, which means that more land isn’t watered. Another significant concern is the waste of water due to the indiscriminate usage of water resources. The drip system is the only way to provide water to the plant zone, which saves a lot of water. At regular intervals of power supply, an irrigation system that is automatic can deliver water to plants whenever they require it. The valves do not need to be turned on or off in this situation. This self-contained irrigation system will water plants at precise times based on soil conditions, enhancing crop growth by collecting water and nutrients as needed. The purpose of this work is to create a sensor network based on low-cost soil moisture and temperature monitoring system that can monitor soil moisture and temperature in real-time and deliver water to plants based on the values detected and crop type. Plants and trees in smart cities must be irrigated on a regular basis to maintain lush foliage, such as irrigation of city park fields and roadside plants. Earlier methods included water channeling or manual watering, both of which resulted in plant death if proper care was not taken. In addition, mechanically running water pumps for filling tanks and controlling sprinklers resulted in a waste of water and electricity due to unnecessary activities. This IoT-based module, similar to an agriculture system or a drip system, provides for optimal plant development while yet conserving the natural beauty of the area. With its efficiency, the ground-level deployment achieves the goal. The proposed model saves approximately 51% water against the conventional watering model.
