Explanation of Solution

Research on Automated Irrigation System:

  • Landscape plants do not require water daily.
  • Outdoor water can be reduced by using irrigation only when orange groves need water.
  • Irrigation is the only choice for supplying water at needed intervals.
  • It can decrease the expenses, as water is needed only at a particular interval.
  • The amount of water needed is changing with the season hence a controller that can easily adjust for season, is needed to save considerable amount of water.
  • Water content in a soil is measured by Soil Moisture Sensor which is a tool used to determine when the irrigation is needed.
  • Rain sensor is used to detect the rainfall and it is inexpensive.
  • It is also used in preventing the irrigation system during rainfall.
  • It should be located in a place that should not be covered by building eaves and it should not have irrigation water.
  • Drip Irrigation method is used; the root region of the tree is collected the water directly hence the work of land leveling is reduced.
  • Every irrigation system can be automated with the help of sensors, timers and other appliances.
  • The amount of water needed depends upon the plants and root system.
  • The cost for purchasing, installing and maintaining equipment is not more than the cost for traditional cultivation. Therefore it reduces the expenses...
