Summary:India, being a country, whose backbone is the agriculture, more and more innovations must be employed in this life saving field, in order to make our lives comfortable. In this paper, based on IoT, a soil irrigation app is built, to help the farmers by automatically switching the motor on or off, based on the humidity of the soil. This is primarily done using a DHT11 Irrigation sensor, which constantly determines the humidity of the soil which later, using a SIM800A Quad Band GSM module, sends signals to the Arduino, which is the Central Processing Unit of this system, utilized here. According to the signals from the sensor to the Arduino, remotely the motor is turned on or off, according to the needs and requirements.
