| dc.description.abstract | This is most important cultural practice by watering and most labor intensive task in daily
greenhouse operation. Watering systems ease the burden of getting water to plants when they
need it. Knowing when and how much to water is two important aspects of watering process.
To make the gardener works easily, the automatic plant watering system is created. There
have a various type using automatic watering system that are by using sprinkler system, tube,
nozzles and other. This project uses watering sprinkler system because it can water the plants
located in the pots. This project uses Arduino board, which consists of ATmega328
Microcontroller. It is programmed in such a way that it will sense the moisture level of the
plants and supply the water if required. This type of system is often used for general plant
care, as part of caring for small and large gardens. Normally, the plants need to be watered
twice daily, morning and evening. So, the microcontroller has to be coded to water the plants
in the greenhouse about two times per day. People enjoy plants, their benefits and the feeling
related to nurturing them. However for most people it becomes challenging to keep them
healthy and alive. To accommodate this challenge we have developed a prototype, which
makes a plant more selfsufficient, watering itself from a large water tank and providing itself
with artificial sunlight. The pro-To type reports status of its current conditions and also
reminds the user to refill the water tank. The system automation is designed to be assistive to
the user. We hope that through this prototype people will enjoy having plants without
challenges related to absent or forgetfulness Bangladesh is a third world country with less
economic growth. About36 %( Bangladesh) of GDP and 64% (Bangladesh) of its
employment comes from agriculture. But our agricultural history is declining due to lack of
irrigation facility. At the same time the existing irrigation facilities cost the government a
huge amount of subsidy every year. So it’s a high time that we find an alternative way of
irrigation so that our subsidy is reduced as well as people get water throughout the year. And
gives birth to our project. In our project, we will be analyzing the feasibility of Automatic
water irrigation system for surface irrigation in the context of Bangladesh. | en_US |
