Abstract :
In contrast to modern figures, which indicate
that around 50% of the population is employed in the
irrigation sector and that, overall, about 70% of
Bangladeshis rely on agriculture for their livelihood;
agriculture has long been considered one of the country's
primary occupations. According to a survey, a lack of water
results in the waste of about 20% of agricultural land, which
is then turned into a desert area for power generation.
Agriculture in the majority of poor nations, like
Bangladesh, depends heavily on conventional energy
sources to power the motors and pumps, which causes our
land to become a desert because the irrigated fields lack
access to power consumption. The aim of the research
scenario is focused on IoT based operating, monitoring and
controlling system for temperature, humidity and soil
moisture in land area with effective and efficient utilization
of renewable resources which is abundantly available such
as solar energy. Internet of things (IoT) is the most evolving,
promising technology which enables agricultural farms to
automatically maintain and monitor with less human
participation. The proposed system utilizes a single board
system-on-a-chip controller which has built-in WiFi
connectivity with ESP8266 module and connections to a
solar cell to provide the required operating power,
monitoring and controlling part is used by Blynk cloud app
system. The controller reads the field soil moisture,
humidity, and temperature sensors, and outputs
appropriate actuation command signals to operate
irrigation pumps. As compared with the other existing
works the proposed system delivers a smart output with less
power consumption.
