IV. COMPONENTS USED C. WATER LEVEL SENSOR
D. GSM MODULE
GSM (in Figure 5) is a transceiver system that makes use
of a network provider to connect to and convey
information. It is used as a wireless system to send the
user message, about the status of the system procedure,
even if the user is not in proximity of the field/garden
[12][13].

VI. CONCLUSION
This is a low budget project which the farmers of the
country can easily afford and can be further improved using
technology. This project solves the problem of manual
watering and saves a lot of time user. It also focuses on
conserving water with increased accuracy in water
distribution to the crops and energy. This project includes
monitoring soil moisture and supplying water uniformly to
the plants using sprinkler or drip system. It also keeps the
track of water level.
