Abstract

Modern agriculture is the need which is required to enhance productivity and security of agriculture system. The security to the agriculture field has to be provided in order to protect the field from animals. The productivity of the agriculture system can be enhanced through the proper irrigation system, crop production/selection based on amount of water available and limited sprinkling of the pesticides’ therefore decided to develop an application model which suits humankind with: 1) The security can be provided through laser fencing. Laser-based fencers can be used to protect the farm, farm-lands, forest bungalows etc. from animals. In a way, laser fencing help in performing the job of a farmer/forest guard present in the field. Laser fencer controls the animals/human by giving the siren indication that alerts them to stay away from the fence which will protect our field. Continuous monitoring of the field through the wireless camera which will be mounted in the field.2) Create a robot that supplies pesticide in an agricultural environment with low wastage and reliability. The robot can be controlled by any wireless media of communication 3) Create a setup to provide water level indication in the water tank so that the proper crop can be selected which can easily grow in the available water. Thus this avoids the problem of scarcity of water 4) water irrigation system based on the moisture content in the field. Water will be supplied to the field if the moisture content in the field is low (minimum threshold) and supply will be stopped if moisture content is more (maximum threshold) in the field. Apart from these, we can even control the water supply through GSM.
