Solar Based Automatic Irrigation System.

Abstract

In Bangladesh the field of agriculture facing a lot of problem & most of us come from a farmer family so we often saw that our father facing also this problem due to water scarcity and interrupted power supply. This condition leads to poor irrigation systems and content thus making the land unfit for agriculture purposes. The solution for such a problem is provided by the solar powered irrigation system. The aim of this paper is to help the farmers to use water effectively and use solar energy for irrigation purpose. The solar power irrigation system will help to reduce the gap between required and consumed energy by using soil moisture sensors and further conserves the resources thereby reducing the wastage of resource Renewable energy source among all the benefits of solar panels, the most important thing is that solar energy is a truly renewable energy source. Reduces Electricity Bills, Diverse Applications, Low Maintenance Costs, Technology Development □ Reduced labor. Timely irrigation - plants being watered when needed. Management of higher flow rates. □ Accurate cut-off of water compared to manual checking. □ Reduced runoff of water and nutrients. □ Reduced costs for vehicles used to check irrigation. Automatic solar power irrigation system, an advanced form of solar irrigation system consists of an automatic control to ON and OFF the control valves which aids the farmers by governing the supply of water to the irrigation lands. It also sustains the moisture level of soil that results in better yield
