ABSTRACT:

The purpose of the project is to build a multipurpose agricultural robot which can performvarious
operations on field. One of the important professionin India is farming so it is essential to look
out for automation in field work to reduce man power. Here this project focuses on farming work
features like automatic irrigation system, monitoring of the field using parameters as temperature
, soil moisture , humidity , raining , presence of any animal on field these all parameters are
monitored from field and transmitted to mobile unit using Bluetooth module

EXISTING SYSTEM

Throughout the earlier years many devices and technologies has been utilized to provide
automation in farmingand accordingly to reduce efforts of farmers. After doing literature review
in the area of agriculture, various applications provided a solutionto reduce manpower
likeCamera based detectionof diseaseon plant,automatic irrigation system, smoke and fire
detection, seed plantation machine. One project presented system combination of such
technology together having automatic irrigation system, cutting feature, monitoring of the field
from remote location,disease indication spread on plant.With this project we show that how we
use the sensor’s and electronics circuit for agriculture industry also. Some time one experiment
change the whole world, so it’s the duty of engineers to try something different for the future
science. May be we don’t know which one would click and verify the concept. In this project we
show that how we use moisture sensorand rain drop sensorto control the working of water pump.

PROPOSED SYSTEM

In this project we can covered the three topics this are automatic irrigation system,
weeding, remote monitoring system,. As irrigation is the main part of agriculture. Labor-
savingand water-saving technology is a key issue in irrigation.Microcontroller based automatic
plant irrigation systemallows a simple and low cost method for irrigating thecrops
automatically.In the proposed system we use bluetooth technology. Here we have three sensors
are soil moisture and rain drop sensor for irrigation purpose and temperature also control the
agriculture parameters. When any of these sensors generates a low signal, the controller enables
the bluetooth modem to send the message of the particular parameter and Farmer can give
command through Bluetooth to ON/OFF the pump motor as per the input data from sensor.
