Abstract

Crop production is likely to decrease in the future due to global warming we
know that water plays an essential role in irrigation. Capturing and storing water requires
adequate rainfall which lacks in the current environment. Sufficient water is required for
the growing of crops in the summer season or else the yield of the crop is reduced to a
greater extinct. The farmer invests most of the time in water management in the farm
through continuous monitoring for better crop productivity with efficient utilizing of all the
resources with adequate pricing. The system is to reduce time investment in water
management and use more time in determining action towards crops by increasing the
productions and measure the humidity level accordingly the motor turns off or turns on
based on the requirement of water that is needed for the crops. The system does not
require the involvement of humans it automatically waters itself by intimating to the
owner via notification and watering level changes according to the prominent factors that
affect the crop yield.
