Muthunpandian et al. (2017) proposed an automatic system for crop field monitoring continuously. The model maintains the water levels within the crop field. This developed device is useful in the irrigation system. Another computerized irrigation model was developed by Gutiérrez et al. (2014) to optimize water use in agricultural crops. The gadget has a distributed wireless community…

Water quality
The water’s turbidity level, implying cloudiness and haziness attributes, is directly proportional to the amount of TSS. The water tank has turbidity sensors that record the increase in water’s turbidity level with increase in TSS. The water is considered to be dirty when the turbidity of water crosses the threshold value and indicates the point.…
