Abstract :
This work is designed to operate as an Automated Irrigation Control and Security System with Wireless Messaging option. The main objectives of our work are to maximize proper use of water, to minimize the cost of labor and to provide security. This project maintains the required water level in the field and throws up excess water due to heavy rain fall by controlling two pumps. A wireless system is designed to provide information to the owner of the land. To ensure the security of the pumps and other equipments, there is a password protected lock system allowing the control to the authorized person only.
