Abstract: The need for efficient and effective agriculture has spurred the development of new solutions using Internet of Things (IoT) technology. This paper presents the design and implementation of an IoT-based smart irrigation system to improve water use in agricultural fields. The system integrates a variety of sensors, including a DHT11 to monitor temperature and a soil moisture sensor to measure soil moisture. The ESP8266 microcontroller is used for data collection and communication with the Blynk cloud platform, allowing remote monitoring and control of mobile applications.The system uses a predefined moisture levels to start and stop the water pump, the threshold moisture level selected according to the type of soil. Additionally, the manual override feature allows users to override and control the pump via the mobile app. Three soil types (Sandy, clay and loam) has been used in this study. The results seek to demonstrate the effectiveness of the system in managing soil moisture, thereby saving water while increasing yields. This research contributes to the advancement of precision agriculture by providing effective and large-scale solutions for smart water management.
