Abstract

In this research, we present a low-cost intelligent irrigation system for farming. Nowadays, farming is shifted to automated and remote monitoring  and management systems integrated with Cloud, Fog, and IoT networks. Our developed prototype can measure water level, temperature, and humidity with a hardware sensor and micro-controller unit. We use different sensors to take different readings and values to decide to turn on or off the motor. We provide essential algorithm and flowchart to explain the system. Our IoT-application-based automated developed system makes an automated system for irrigation and provides notification via mobile SMS to inform us of the irrigation field’s details remotely.
