Abstract

Smart irrigation systems powered by IoT technology are vital in agriculture. Traditional methods often harm plant
health and wastewater. Conversely, IoT-driven smart irrigation enhances water management, boosts crop yield, and supports sustainable farming. It uses sensors, data analysis, and automation to gather and analyse real-time data for informed decisions and real-time control. The hardware comprises a central unit using Raspberry Pi and sensors measuring Temperature, Humidity, and soil moisture. Node-red manages data flow and decision-making by incorporating sensor data and external weather information. It links with the Favoriot platform for seamless data streaming, offering cloud storage and analysis. A predefined set of thresholds for soil moisture, humidity, and Temperature guides irrigation decisions. This system provides precise irrigation assessments, customization, and secure cloud storage. By optimizing water usage, enhancing crop health, and enabling remote monitoring and control, it promotes sustainable water management in agriculture.
