Abstract

Agriculture utilizes biological resources to produce food, industrial raw materials, energy sources, and manage the environment. This sector plays a strategic role in national economic development. This research aims to design an automatic spraying system for shallot plants based on soil moisture using soil moisture sensors. This system utilizes soil moisture sensors to detect the water content in the soil as well as soil moisture sensors to measure the air humidity around the plants. Data from both sensors are processed by the microcontroller to regulate the timing and duration of the spraying. The prototype of this system was built using soil moisture sensors, soil moisture sensors, microcontrollers, water pumps, solenoid valves, and other supporting components. Testing was conducted in the field with red onion plants as the test subjects. The results show that the system is capable of functioning effectively in watering plants based on soil moisture levels. The sensor works accurately in measuring water content, while the microcontroller successfully controls the spraying optimally. The implementation of this system has proven to increase water usage efficiency and support better growth of red onion plants. Thus, this automatic spraying system offers an environmentally friendly and efficient solution for irrigation based on soil moisture and soil moisture sensors.
