Abstract

The Water Scarcity is increasing very much in the drought prone area. So the consumption of water should be optimally done. The waste of water should be cut down very seriously. As our country is an irrigation based nation, much of the land is used for cultivation. The necessity of water is very essential. An attempt to cut down the wastage of irrigation water will be tried in the present project work the project aims in designing an IOT sensor system which will be capable of detecting the moisture level humidity and PH value of the soil. These sensors will be fixed at predominant positions of the fields. When the moisture level is sufficient,pump will be switched off. The heavy duty water motor pump operating for the fields will be provided with sensor for temperature detection. Increase in the surface temperature of the motor switches of the power supply thereby preventing the damage for motor winding.
Thus an attempt to stop water wastage and water pump damage will be made in this research work using the IOT technology.
