Abstract: Irrigation systems are crucial for agriculture, yet improper water distribution frequently results in wastage and increased water usage. This project demonstrates an Intelligent Water Management System using Internet of Things (IoT) that automates and optimizes water distribution for irrigation, resulting in more efficient water usage. The system is based on the Arduino UNO platform and includes essential components like a soil moisture sensor, servomotors, an LCD display, and an ESP8266 Wi-Fi module. The system has two modes of operation: Auto Mode, in which the system automatically measures soil moisture independently and regulates water supply to plants according to real-time measurements, and Manual Mode, in which users can monitor and operate the irrigation system remotely through a mobile app or web portal via the Wi-Fi module. The LCD shows the soil moisture and status of the system in real time, enabling users to track the performance of the irrigation system. The technology will minimize water loss, regulate irrigation time, and enable sustainable agriculture through automation of the irrigation process to save water more efficiently.
