Abstract: In the face of global challenges such as climate change, water scarcity, and the need for increased agricultural productivity, the adoption of advanced technologies in farming has never been more crucial. One such technological innovation that holds immense promise is the irrigation system, which leverages the Internet of Things (IoT) to optimize water usage and enhance crop growth. The proposed system consist of a measuring temperature, relative humidity (RH) and soil moisture. This data is used to to know how much water will be supplied to the plant. With this, the waste of water will be reduced and the farmer will know if the crop has been estressed trhoughout its life. It also has an alert system to send the user a notification if the crop is being exposed to extreme weather conditions, or if there was a flood due to a possible accident in the plantation.
