Abstract

The high demand for corn is unpredictable nowadays since it is a healthy food which has high antioxidant. Since the demand is very high, the farmers find that they must be producing a very large amount of corn without using many energy, time and money by implementing the automatic irrigation sprinkler system based on soil moisture sensor and displays soil moisture level in the Blynk apps. This report also describes the history of the farming industry and how it has evolved over time. This paper proposes and demonstrates an economical and easy to use Wifi-based controlled irrigation system. The designed system deals with environmental factor which is moisture using soil moisture sensor. This project is using real-time clock widget in Blynk apps since it syncs real-time clock on Arduino. It will get the date and time from the server and datas are collected and received by the microcontroller which is NodeMCU which can be linked to the apps. It shows the real-time values along with the standard values of factor required by the crops. Since the revolution in industry now are more to the applications that is functioning with 4.0 industry element and Internet of Things (IoT) project, it allows users to control irrigation pump and valves from far distance through the apps and to meet the standard values which would help the farmers with optimum usage of water as well as to yield the maximum and quality crops.
