Abstract: Now-a-days farming is an important occupation which plays a vital role in the survival of all the Human Beings. This is a field where every other person can start with their own farming system. But farmers of current environment don’t have the intelligent process involved in it. So there is an alarming need for the intelligent farming processes. New methods have to be incorporated from the conventional ways of farming to achieve efficient farming. Among all the problems that the farmers are facing, most common and important problem that the farmers have is water problem. They have scarcity of water for the farming because of irregular presence of water availability due to floods and sometimes due to drought. So there is a need for smart water management and conserving the systems to effectively utilize the water whenever required. Addressing the problems faced by the farmers in the proper utilisation of the water in the farming, this work proposes an IoT based water management system to effectively use, conserve and reuse of the water for the plants.
