Abstract

The scope of this thesis is to increase the quality and productivity of multi-crops in agriculture though central control centre using embedded technology. It is achieved by engineering the logic in sequential manner, combined at nodes, cycled through feedback and communicated after the execution of integrated irrigation engineering and embedded processing. The dynamic partial self-reconfiguration feature of Virtex II pro with FPGA architecture and its ability to interface with real time input output devices strings this advance system. This is an integrated real time multi data processing system such as temperature, humidity and water that determines the productivity of agricultural crops [Jata,b, H. S., in Elsevier, 2019]. The main advantages of this system are that, it increases multi crop production per unit area at lower operating and maintenance cost. This prototype system as a whole provides user the direct possibility of central management, statistics, monitoring and eventually resulting in economic development by effective production of multi-crops in rural areas through societies to uplift the quality of living of rural people.
