Proposed system
Based on the above concerns we have created a model which is based on IoT for smart farming agriculture activities and follows the below-mentioned objectives: To achieve the proposed model, three sensors are used: This sensor helps in measuring the light transmitted in order to determine the turbidity of the water. When there is cloudiness…

Literature survey
IoT technology is growing at a very fast rate and is being used in farming nowadays. The very first conference papers on IoT-based application were published in 2010 (Duan, 2011). Since then, numerous works have been done in IoT field. It is helping in increasing resources. There have been many contributions in this area by…

Introduction
Farming in Rajasthan is barely successful. The main cause for the failure of farming techniques is the wrong predictions. These unforeseeable situations are forcing many of the farmers to even take their own lives as they are unable to bear the enormous losses. Hence, we need to keep the essential parameters of agriculture in our…

Result and conclusion
The result of this project was a cost-efficient and easy-to-use system that can have applications in real world. It will help the farmers in drought-affected areas the most while conserving water and food grains. On a personal level, the project was an enriching experience. It allowed us to have a hands-on experience on practical projects…

Relay
Relays are generally type of switches used to operate electrical ON and OFF connections electronically or electro-mechanically. Relays are used to control a circuit by establishing and closing contacts with other circuits. When relay is not powered, it is in normally open (NO) condition, and when there is close contact it is normally closed (NC)…

Soil moisture sensor
Soil moisture sensor, as clear from its name, is used to detect the moisture level of soil. It detects presence of water content in soil depending upon checking the resistance or dielectric constant of soil. The measured value can be calibrated and can be affected by different parameters like type of soil, environmental temperature, conductivity of…

Long time exposure to adverse environment
No matter whether the sensors are electrified or not, if exposed to adverse environment for a long time, such as high humidity, high temperature or high pollution, it will affect the sensor performance badly. Vibration Continual vibration will result in sensors’ down-lead response then rupture. In transportation or assembling line, pneumatic screwdriver/ultrasonic welding machine can…

Long time storage
The sensor resistance produces a reversible drift if it is stored for a long time without electricity; this drift is related to storage conditions. Sensors should be stored in airproof condition without silicone gel bag with clean air. When any of the sensors are stored for a long time without electricity, it requires a long…
