Intelligent Water Control System for Agriculture Monitoring with Mobile Application

This research paper presents an intelligent watering system with a mobile application to provide an automated and efficient way of watering plants. The system was designed to be cost-effective, power-efficient, dependable, and adaptable. The system consists of a soil moisture sensor, a water pump, a water tank, and a mobile application. The water pump moves water from the water tank to the soil, and the soil moisture sensor tracks the moisture in the soil. The system comes with a mobile app that can track the temperature of a specific area, the moisture level of the soil for the vegetable crops, and the water level of the tank. Results of the study showed that the system was able to reliably detect soil moisture levels and provide an effective method of watering plants. The user survey revealed high acceptability of the system. Hence, the use of this efficient and cost-effective intelligent watering system with a mobile application can greatly benefit the agricultural sector.
