PESTISIDES DOSING WITH AUTOMATIC PLANT IRRIGATION FOR AGRICULTURE APPLICATIONS
PESTISIDES DOSING WITH AUTOMATIC PLANT IRRIGATION FOR AGRICULTURE APPLICATIONS
Abstract:
Indian agriculture is dependent on the monsoons which is not a reliable source of water. Therefore there is a need for an irrigation system in the country which can provide water to the farms according to their soil types. This paper presents the prototype design of microcontroller based automatic irrigation system which will allow irrigation to take place in zones where watering is required, there by supplying required quantity of water depending on the soil moisture indicated by different plants. Thus different plants grown can be supplied with single source of water automatically, which requires no human control.
The use of pesticides sprinkling system in this project makes an added advantage to the irrigation system by sprinkling the pesticide mixture in required proportion to the plants once in a minute. Here, switches are used for giving an input ratio by which the pesticide and water are supplied to plants.
This project uses AT89S52 Microcontroller as its controller.
This project uses regulated 5v, 750mA power supply. 7805, a three terminal voltage regulator is used for voltage regulation. Bridge type full wave rectifier is used to rectify the ac output of secondary of 230/12v step down transformer.
