Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to Cloud based system to monitor precision agriculture based on soil sensor.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Every year, due to unfavorable moisture content, the crop yield decreases, causing farmers great losses. Individual cultivators can’t supervise the large area of land efficiently. They have to visit their farmlands regularly to monitor and maintain their crops. The process is very time-consuming and requires more manpower. Moreover, they don’t have accurate historical data on optimum water levels/NPK values. Unfavorable climatic changes can create problems for the farmer. There is an urgent requirement for a system that can assist the farmer in cutting the daily commute to the fields for monitoring crops.
CN115988036A The invention relates to a remote monitoring system for coupling soil moisture and crop growth, which comprises: a data acquisition module: the system is used for collecting the temperature and humidity of the crop growth environment, soil data, and crop growth parameters; the wireless sensor network module: the system is used for transmitting temperature, humidity, soil data and growth parameters; the monitoring data storage module: the system is used for comparing the temperature and humidity with the growth parameters based on the standard data of the crop growth environment and the standard data of the crop growth to obtain the growth condition of the crops; soil moisture content monitoring module: the monitoring system is used for monitoring the water content of the soil through soil data; the central control module: the single chip microcomputer is used for controlling each module to work normally. The invention solves the problems of large labor intensity and the like caused by the need of regularly removing the planting field block to check the crop growth condition in the traditional planting process, reduces the labor cost and improves the operation efficiency and precision.
Research Gap: This system uses the soil sensor which is connected to a cloud-based system that analyses the water content and can automatically maintain the water content using a motor pump .
US8660705B2 A soil moisture based irrigation system includes a stand alone irrigation controller with a seasonal adjust feature and a stand alone weather station including at least one soil moisture sensor. The soil moisture based irrigation system further includes a stand alone soil moisture control unit operatively connected to the irrigation controller and the soil moisture sensor. The soil moisture control unit includes programming configured to calculate an estimated soil moisture requirement value using a signal from the soil moisture sensor and to automatically modify a watering schedule of the irrigation controller through the seasonal adjust feature based on the estimated soil moisture requirement value to thereby conserve water while maintaining plant health.
Research gap: This system also provides the information about rain and irrigate the field according to the moisture level of the field.
