Abstract

This paper proposed sensor-based irrigation system for farmers at Agogo, a municipal capital of Ashanti Akim North of Ghana. The system seeks to monitors and maintains the desired soil moisture content using automatic watering. Microcontroller ATMEGA328P on the Arduino Uno platform is used to implement the control unit of the system. The irrigation system uses soil moisture sensors to measure the exact moisture level of the soil. The measured value is used to control irrigation of the farm. The threshold value enables the system to use appropriate quantity of water which avoids over and under irrigation. IOT is used to keep the farmers updated about the status of watering pump. Information from the sensors is regularly updated on an application through which a farmer can check whether the water pump is ON or OFF at any given time.
