Smart irrigation and intrusions detection in agricultural fields using IoT

Abstract

Agriculture plays an important role in the life span of human being not only for their survival but for the better economic growth of the country too. Precision agriculture is the new trending term in the field of technology whose main motive is to reduce the workload of the farmers and increase the productivity of the farms by using technologies like I.O.T, WSNs, Remote Sensing, Drone surveillance and many more. In this paper, we show the work done by our cost effective and reliable device whose aim is to irrigate fields only when there is a need of water and to provide information about detection of any intrusion in agricultural fields. The information is sent to the farmers by using cloud application. The performance of our system is measured in terms of intrusion detection and moisture of soil for irrigation
