Fuzzy Based Irrigation Control using Wireless Sensor Network in Tomato Farming

Abstract

Fuzzy logic systems are used to check the degrees of truth in real life system. New advancement has been seen in the field of agriculture due to the advancement in wireless technology. The proposed system will describes about the uses of fuzzy logic systems with help of wireless sensor network in efficient farming of tomato crop which is an important crop and commonly suggested by many farmers. It leads more profit but, it has to be taken care properly. Because it gets affected to disease easily. The proposed system also explain the irrigation system as well as fertigation (fertilisers given through irrigation) and controlling the pesticides. Fertigation technique is established with wireless sensor network that will collect a data, monitoring to the crops to allow for higher yields and lower cost, with less impact to the environment. Each area receives only what is required for its particular space, and at the appropriate time and duration. Required information is collected which is scientifically accurate with the help of wireless sensors. And the fuzzy based irrigation controller will accept the data which is sent to by WSN from the farm. Based upon the condition the machine will sprinkle the fertilizer and drip the water. The main use of advanced technologies will leads to proper and efficient use of resources in tomato farming.
