Abstract

Given that significant food scarcity exists in many parts of the world, sustained development of agricultural production is a feasible goal today. Agriculture plays a significant part in the growth and economic development of food in Malaysia and the world at large. Getting high yield from farm produce depend on land fertility, soil moisture and other climatic factors. The goal of this paper is to establish an automated fertilized irrigation control and management system for soil porosity and nutrient enhancement through the timely application of fertilizer and water levels needed for crop growth and development. This will metabolize the soil texture, give the nutrient to the crops, build plant tissue as well as increase the rate of crop productivity. To implement the system, several components and intelligence units such as humidity sensors, flow switch sensor, solenoid valve, Arduino Uno and other components were interfaced to automatically apply soluble agrochemical fertilizer and water based on plant needs. Farmers out there to become more involved in agriculture can use the planned system. Indeed, being virtuous in the land can produce a decent income.
