Introduction

Automatic Irrigation System with an Arduino Uno which will irrigate


your plants automatically and keep them healthy even when you are out of the
town for weeks or months. This system can work automatically and there is no
need for interference.

Components needed for this project


 Arduino Uno
 Soil moisture sensor

 mini water pump

 jumper wires.

 Relay module

 9V Battery

Software Requirements
1.Arduino IDE 1.8.

Working of the Automatic


Irrigation System
The project consists of one Arduino UNO board, one water pump, one soil
moisture sensor, and one relay module. We have to insert the soil moisture
sensor deep inside the soil and the water pump must be connected to some water
tank or water supply. The water pump is connected to the Arduino board with
the help of a relay module.
First, the Arduino will measure the moisture of the soil using the soil moisture
sensor to find out whether the soil is dry or not. If the soil is dry then the
Arduino will turn ON the relay module that will turn ON the water pump. The
water pump will remain turn ON till the moisture level of the soil reaches a
certain level. After that, the pump will be turned OFF.

Description about each


component (Paste pictures and
write about each one)
 Arduino Uno: The microcontroller that processes data from the soil moisture sensor and
controls the mini water pump based on predetermined moisture thresholds.

 Soil Moisture Sensor: This sensor detects the moisture level in the soil. When the
moisture level falls below a set point, it sends a signal to the Arduino to activate the pump.

 Mini Water Pump: This component is responsible for delivering water to the plants. It
receives commands from the Arduino to turn on or off based on moisture readings.

 Jumper Wires: These are used to connect all components together. They ensure
communication between the Arduino, sensor, relay, and pump.

 Relay Module: The relay acts as a switch controlled by the Arduino. It allows the low-
voltage Arduino to safely control the higher-voltage mini pump.

 9V Battery: This powers the Arduino and the mini pump, ensuring the system operates
independently without needing an external power source.

Advantages of Smart Irrigation
Systems
1. Water Conservation: Reduces water waste by watering only when
necessary.
2. Improved Plant Health: Ensures optimal watering, preventing under- or
over-watering.
3. Automation and Convenience: Minimizes manual watering efforts with
programmable schedules.
4. Cost Savings: Lowers water bills and reduces the need for fertilizers and
pesticides.
5. Data-Driven Insights: Provides analytics on moisture levels and
watering history for informed decisions.
6. Environmental Benefits: Protects local water sources and promotes
sustainable practices.
7. Flexibility and Customization: Easily adjustable schedules based on
weather or plant needs.
8. Integration with Other Technologies: Works with weather forecasts
and smart home systems for enhanced efficiency.
