Automated Irrigation System

Irrigation is the application of controlled amounts of water to plants at needed intervals. A well-designed irrigation system loses practically no water to runoff, deep percolation, or evaporation.Also it can be managed precisely to meet crop demands, holding the promise of increased yield and quality.Successful agriculture is dependent upon farmers having sufficient access to water.Food production and water management is an increasing global issue that is fostering a growing debate. So an Automated Irrigation system which waters plants regularly by self-sense when the plants need water is a necessity. So that each plant would get the amount of water it needs, neither too much nor too little by ensuring the usage of water efficiently.
