Agriculture is one of the most important
sectors of India and contributes to 18 percent of India’s
GDP. The irrigation system used determines the quality
of the yield and affects the sector. The conventional
irrigation systems used in major parts of the country do
not provide the optimum yield for crops. The main
objective of the project is to develop an Automated
Watering and Irrigation System that can be used to
improve the conventional systems. The project is not
only restricted to the agricultural field but can also be
implemented at our homes or at commercial
establishments having accommodation for lawns and
plants.
