Abstract

During present days the agriculture fields are decreasing day by day due to scarcity of an electricity and water. The world is facing a another problem that is a population. Now a days the population is increasing day by day then there needs a lot a food crops to satisfied the today population. There is a need of a new technology in a agricultural system that is automatic irrigation system through a solar power. By using this technique we can produce a crops in a efficient ways and the farmer has no need to continuously monitor the soil and weather conditions in favor of growth of crops. In this project mainly the solar power is used to supply required power to the pump set and the humidity sensors are used to sense whether the soil is in a wet or dry conditions. Additional components are used in the project they are microcontroller and Op-Amps.
