Abstract

From the very beginning, agriculture contributes a major portion to our national income. In India over two-third of our population are engaged directly and also depend for their livelihood on agriculture. Current agricultural practices are economically and environmentally not sustainable and results in low productivity. This paper presents a new solution to plant automatically and monitors remotely using computer technologies. Firstly, the model describes the model of plantation in depth. Then the CPU plays a major role to manage irrigation and the whole system. The sensors like soil moisture sensors are implemented to measure the water content in soil and thereby used to estimate how much irrigation is required. Further all the plantation is supervised by cameras and images are uploaded to cloud frequently. Then these images are processed to analyze the process of  development of crop. Therefore using IoT and Image processing technologies, the model estimates the best harvesting time and assures the mass foodproduction.
