IoT Soil Moisture Monitoring and Irrigation System Development
Agriculture is vital in human evolution and was the first activity to be emphasized ever since the beginning of time. With the population growing constantly, there are inventions of new means in the production of food to cater for those demands. Improvement in a variety of technologies is one of suc...

Agriculture is vital in human evolution and was the first activity to be emphasized ever since the beginning of time. With the population growing constantly, there are inventions of new means in the production of food to cater for those demands. Improvement in a variety of technologies is one of such effort conducted for the cause. Robotics or chemical technologies may not be the only improvements that could be exercised. Internet of Things (IoT) technology is one of an application widely used currently. The study aims to establish a less manpower plantation in smart city with the use of IoT technology to improve the crop cultivation. In preliminary, a wireless soil moisture monitoring and irrigation system was developed. The system aims to monitor the moisture and properties of soil for plants. At the same time, with a self-sufficient and self-organized irrigation system based on the water-control algorithm.
