Farming has always been a hard work and weather dependent work. But in today's era when water scarcity and rising costs are the biggest challenges, the use of technology in farming has become very important.

A revolutionary change has come in this direction - Smart Irrigation System.

This system not only helps farmers save water but also increases their crop yield, saves time and effort and makes farming sustainable.

In countries like USA and Canada, where commercial farming and production of high-value crops is done on a large scale, this technology is even more important.

What is Smart Irrigation System?

You can consider Smart Irrigation System as a "smart brain" for farming. This technology uses sensors, IoT (Internet of Things), and data analytics to provide the field with exactly the amount of water the crop needs.

Meaning neither more nor less – just perfectly balanced irrigation.

Why is it needed in USA and Canada?

• Water Scarcity: Water scarcity is becoming serious in areas like California, Arizona (USA) and Alberta (Canada). In such a situation, smart irrigation makes the best use of water and can save up to 30–50%.
• Large-scale farming: Here farming is done on large farms. It is not possible to go everywhere and manually water. Automated irrigation systems solve this problem.
• Saving expensive labor and time: Labor cost is very high in USA and Canada. Smart irrigation reduces labor costs and also saves the farmer's valuable time.
• Production of high-value crops: High-value crops like corn, soybean, wheat, fruits and vegetables are grown here. Targeted irrigation increases both their productivity and market value.
• Government Support: Governments in North America promote water-efficient technology and also provide subsidies and grants to farmers.

How does a smart irrigation system work?

This system uses many modern components, which are interconnected and provide real-time data to the farmer.

• Soil Moisture Sensors: These sensors installed in the smart irrigation system keep checking the moisture of the soil in the field all the time. When the moisture in the soil is already sufficient, the system automatically stops watering. This prevents unnecessary wastage of water and the crop gets as much irrigation as it needs.
• Weather Sensors: These collect information about rainfall, humidity and temperature. If rain is about to come, the system stops irrigation.
• IoT and Mobile Connectivity: The farmer can control the farm from his mobile or online dashboard. This means – complete control over irrigation even without going to the field.
• Automatic Pumps & Valves: As soon as the moisture in the soil decreases, the pumps and valves turn on automatically and give only as much water as is needed.

Example: Suppose it is going to rain the next day. The weather sensors will send this information to the system and the system will stop irrigation. Result – water savings, cost reduction and better crop.

Major benefits to farmers

• 30–50% water savings
  
• Savings of labor and time
  
• 20–40% increase in crop quality and productivity
  
• Reduction in crop diseases caused by over-irrigation
  
• Remote access – The farmer can control the farm from anywhere
  
• In the long run, farming cost decreases and profits increase
