Abstract: In the past couple of decades, there is rapid growth in terms of technology in the field of irrigation. Different monitoring systems are installed in order to improve the yield. Monitoring unit monitors the various agricultural parameters like temperature, relative humidity, moisture, light detection, etc. and controlling unit controls the peripheral devices attached to the controller like valve, watering pump, etc. This paper reviews some of these monitoring systems and proposes an automatic monitoring system model using microcontroler, which may help the farmer to improve the yield.
