Abstract

The irrigation system is a method that ensures that all plants get enough water for growth. However, due to the climate exchange, especially in dry season, the soil tends to lose its moisture. Although the Automatic irrigation system has been applied in the agriculture sector, water consumption and energy cannot be controlled through this system due to the system operated under time delay. Usually, farmers only can switch on or off the system manually depends on the weather. Therefore, this paper introduced the automatic irrigation system using android based application wireless communication. The system has a distributed wireless network of soil-moisture, humidity and temperature sensors. As the technology is growing and changing rapidly, Long Range (LoRa) communication helps to upgrade the technology where automation is playing an important role in human life. Using this system, the monitoring and controlling irrigation can be done via Android application and web server from any location.
