Aim: Aim is to construct a automated plant watering system using arduino
Introduction:
Internet of Things (IoT) technology has brought revolution to each and
every field of common man’s life by making everything smart and intelligent. IoT refers
to a network of things which make a self-configuring network. The development of
Intelligent Smart Farming IoT based devices is day by day turning the face of agriculture
production by not only enhancing it but also making it cost-effective and reducing
wastage. The aim / objective of this report is to propose IoT based Smart Farming
System assisting farmers in getting Live Data (Temperature, Soil Moisture) for efficient
environment monitoring which will enable them to increase their overall yield and quality
of products. The IoT based Smart Farming System being proposed via this report is
integrated with Arduino Technology mixed with different Sensors and a Wifi module
producing live data feed that can be obtained online from [Link]. The
product being proposed is tested on Live Agriculture Fields giving high accuracy over
98% in data feeds .

Proposed system:
Working:
The smart plant watering system would consist of an Arduino
connected with a soil moisture sensor and a light intensity
sensor. Depending on the measured value of the moisture
level, a water pump connected to Arduino through a relay
shield is powered on/off.
Results:
An automatic plant watering system using Arduino utilizes a soil moisture
sensor to monitor soil moisture levels. When the moisture drops below a set
threshold, the Arduino activates a water pump to deliver water to the plants,
ensuring they receive the right amount of hydration.
Advantages and limitations:
Advantages
1)reduced water waste Limitations
2)increased plant health 1)costs for purchasing
2)installing
3)convenience for the user
3)maintaining the equipment.
Applications:
Its main purpose is to save water, keep plants and soil irrigated and without
much of human support. A sensor will gather various readings from soil and
based on moisture present, pump will turn on. It will be used to Irrigate land
automatically.
Conclusion:
Its main purpose is to save water, keep plants and soil irrigated and without much
of human support. A sensor will gather various readings from soil and based on
moisture present, pump will turn on. It will be used to Irrigate land automatically.
Future scope:
An Arduino-based automatic plant watering system has a future scope that
includes enhanced automation, greater connectivity, and more sophisticated
control. These systems can be integrated with other IoT systems, offering
features like remote monitoring and scheduling through mobile apps, weather-
based adjustments, and personalized watering profiles for different plants
