Smart Irrigation System

Using the right amount of water to irrigate plants not only saves water (which is becoming scarce) but will also yield quality agricultural products. Sensors will monitor the temperature and soil humidity, and will turn on/off irrigation pumps when needed. LoRa sensors - long range wireless sensors requiring low power to operate - will be used. This system will be controlled from a mobile phone application.
