Plant Soil Moisturizer Monitoring System
Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject SummarySoil moisture sensor is used to monitor soil moisture in wheat crop cultivation methods using intelligent irrigation system. Sensors integrated into the irrigation system help to schedule water supply and distribution more efficiently. Tensiometer and watermarks were less responsive for soil drying during irrigation.
Project ObjectivesSoil Moisture sensor measure or estimate the amount of water in the soil. These sensors can be stationary or portables such as handheld. Stationary sensor can be placed at the predetermined locations and depth in the field whereas portable soil moisture probes can measure the soil moisture at several locations. The main purpose of this project is to design an automatic watering device by sensing the soil conditions.
Project Implementation MethodImplementation of Soil Moisture sensor based automatic irrigation in woody ornamental production.This project is very useful for farmers as it tells the details of the moisture level in the soil.
Benefits of the ProjectThe plant Monitoring System is helpful for watering the plant and to monitor few parameters for growth of plants. Yhis system is used in few areas like nursery farm and in agriculture. Measuring Soil quality provides an early warning of the potential effects different primary use activities may be having on long-term soil quality.
Technical Details of Final DeliverableSoil Moisturing Monitoring System can be used to monitor soil moisture sensor under the wheat cultivation practices using intelligent irrigation system.
