Abstract: Irrigation is the artificial application of water to the soil that is necessary for the absorption of mineral nutrients by the plants from the soil. It is essential for the general growth of ...

If you are designing your own intelligent “Graden Computer” with an optional digital plant moisture sensor/water pump controller that lights an LED to alert the user when it is time to water a potted ...

Abstract: This paper describes the fringing electric field modeling and performance of four different shaped poly methyl methacrylate-coated capacitive sensors for soil moisture measurement.

Most of the farmers use large portions of farming land and it becomes very difficult to reach and track each corner of large lands. Sometime there is a possibility of uneven water sprinkles. This ...

Soil moisture measurement is fundamental to understanding hydrological processes, crop water dynamics, and broader environmental monitoring. Recent advancements have driven the development of ...

Water resources influence agricultural production, yet efficient utilization, particularly water conservation in irrigation still remains a significant challenge in developing nations. This study ...

16bit values are returned most significant byte first. Both light and moisture sensors give relative values. Meaning, more moisture will give you higher reading, more light, lower reading. They are ...

Plant-based sensors that measure the thickness and electrical capacitance of leaves show great promise for telling farmers when to activate their irrigation systems, preventing both water waste and ...

Electricity can be a pretty handy tool when it stays within the bounds of its wiring. It’s largely responsible for our modern world and its applications are endless. When it’s not running in wires or ...
