ABSTRACT
An automatic irrigation control system as being designed to facilitate the automatic supply adequate of water for a reservoirs to fields or domestic crops in all agricultural seasons. One of the objectives of this work is to see how human control could be removed from irrigation and also to optimize the use of water in the process. The method employed is to continuously monitor the soil moisture level to decide whether irrigation is in needed, and how much water is needed in the soil. A pumping mechanic is used to deliver the needed amount of water to the soil. The work can be grouped into four, sub-system named power supply, sensing unit, control unit and pumping sub-system which made the automatic irrigation control system

Hi! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any tips?

Thanks for your post. I’d really like to say that the expense of car insurance will vary from one plan to another, given that there are so many different facets which play a role in the overall cost. For example, the make and model of the motor vehicle will have a large bearing on the price tag. A reliable old family car will have an inexpensive premium than just a flashy expensive car.
i Don’t understand you, how is car related to CONSTRUCTION OF AUTOMATIC IRRIGATION SYSTEM ON SENSING SOIL MOISTURE CONTENT.
