<![CDATA[The irrigation process for horticultural crops in agricultural fields requires a considerable amount of time and labor. During the dry season, farmers typically need to irrigate their fields twice a day to ensure optimal plant growth and maintain crop productivity. This activity is performed routinely daily, which can lead to fatigue and consume significant amounts of time and energy. Therefore, to improve the efficiency of irrigation practices, an automated irrigation system was designed. With this system, the time and labor that farmers would otherwise devote to manual irrigation can be redirected to other agricultural activities. The proposed system utilizes soil moisture sensors installed in the agricultural field. These sensors are employed to monitor soil moisture levels according to the specific water requirements of the crops. When the sensors detect that the soil moisture level has fallen below the desired threshold, a signal is transmitted to the controller, which subsequently activates a water valve. As a result, water is supplied to the field to increase soil moisture. Once the soil moisture reaches the predefined level, the valve is automatically closed, thereby stopping the irrigation process. This system is expected to assist farmers in managing their agricultural land more effectively by providing a solution that is easier to operate, more efficient, cost-effective, and measurable.]]>
