Agriculture is one of the most fundamental resources of food production and also plays a vital role in keeping the economy of every nation by contributing to the Gross Domestic Production (GDP). But there are several issues related to traditional methods of agriculture such as excessive wastage of water during irrigation of field, dependency on non-renewable sources such as petroleum coal, time, money, human resource etc. Now-a-days the increasing demand of non renewable power sources, automation and digitization, SMART agriculture is believed to be most expected food production sector in country. This paper aims at developing the Smart Irrigation System using IoT (Internet of Things) technology. The primary objective of the present work is to automate the total irrigation system in terms of water requirement of the crop by monitoring the moisture of soil and climate condition and also to prevent the wastage of water resource. The paper also highlights remote access of the irrigation system from home using IoT technology. Thus the system will provide convenient access of the system and protect the farmer from scorching heat & severe cold.
