How to make Automatic Irrigation System Using Arduino

PCB for 2$ (any colour) : www.jlcpcb.com
I will show you how to build and implement an automatic irrigation system which can sense the water content in the soil and automatically irrigate your garden. This system can be programmed for different crop requirements and seasonal variations. This system is best suited for drip irrigation technique. I have also tested the system for different soil conditions and water availability.
This System will help you to irrigate your backyard Garden or your Indoor Garden automatically and you need not to worry about watering your favorite plants in your busy schedule.
Arduino UNO is the brain of this system and all the sensors and display devices are controlled by it. A Moisture sensor is used to read the Moisture content of the soil. An LCD is provided to monitor the Soil Status, Ambient Temperature, and Status of Water supply(Water Pump).

Keep it bro uh helping many of people's out there❤️🔥

[@maxxel_]

nice job! you should maybe make it so it pumps water for like 20 seconds and then waits a minute to read the sensor again since it might take a while until the water reaches the sensor

[@charlesteker9887]

Hello, I was hoping that you could help me. I like your design, but I want to use a timer and have the moisture sensor as a safety. Also Like to add Co2 read out. Thanks in advance for any help. Skip

[@Sinasongway]

Excellet bro.I have some doubts.1.Whats the use of speaker?2.If I have to use more than one soil moisture senser how can I connect them?

hi, thank you very much for your video, but do you mind if add pump runtime for 20 sec only then wait for 3 minutes to let the soil soak properly and run it again for 20sec until the sensor will be satisfied. thank you very much in advance

[@metalalive2006]

Good job man, Where did you get your water level sensor ? (from any online shop maybe ?) I'm looking for the one with reasonable price.

[@TejDeep-]

sir the lcd is going weird when the relay switches and pump is on what to do(i used a dc pump)

[@TejDeep-]

and when the pump is removed every thing works fine

[@TheTechnocrat]

Have you connected flyback diode to the relay?? Also proper grounding should solve your problem. No it is 220 V 30W pump.

[@TheTechnocrat]

Looks like a EMI Problem. Try to isolate the microcontroller-lcd circuit in a grounded metal container. Or place the motor , relay and motor wiring circuit away (maybe 2meter) from the circuit. I am not a EMI expert but this is worth a try. Please share your learnings here. Thanks

Bro can we do this without Arduino if u know pls help me bro i have to submit the mini project. 🤦‍♂️

no you cannot in your case. cuz you need a lot of electrical knowledge to do with out arduino. Recommend buying the arduino uno.

Yes it is possible. I would suggest you to learn about ESP8266, Bluetooth modules and MIT APP INVENTOR for mobile application. Ofcourse there are many apps in Android store for communication with WiFi and bluetooth modules.

[@satabdipalit1955]

i made this one bt when moist nd soggy soil is detected water stop for a while nd pump is in off mode...after a while pump started automatically...why is it

[@TheTechnocrat]

It is because the sensor detected the soil to be dry after some time and the sudden flood of water might have caused the sensor to detect the moist condition and turn off the pump. This is the bug I was talking in the video. This can be improved by placing the sensor in the most appropriate place and maybe add a timer in the code to avoid the false trigger of the pump relay.

Please send your circuit diagram through Google drive. Or send me a link.

[@diyanashahirah3165]

​@@TheTechnocrat I build my circuit exactly the same as yours and for the code i downloaded your code too however when i upload it, the result isn't like your demonstration. The lcd display dry soil and pump is on but the water pump is not turn on and when the water level is low the pump says its OFF but the water pump is running. Also the led should light up the same as the relay led turn on. But when the green led from relay is turn on my LED is off. Also the moisture sensor does not react and display soggy soil when i place it into the wet soil. Can you please explain...I had no idea how this can happen because i follow everything like you did. But my project is not working.
