Abstract
Sun powered power is utilized as just the wellspring of energy to control the general framework. Sensors are set on the paddy field
and these sensors constantly sense the water substance and give the message to the agriculturist. Without going to the paddy fields,
ranchers can get the data about the Moisture substance and agriculturist can control the pump set by communicating something
specific from his PDA even from a remote place where system is accessible. Be that as it may, if the Moisture level scopes to the
low level the engine will naturally begin without insinuation to agriculturist and to guarantee the correct water level in the site.
Toward the finish of this paper, a total equipment usage of this proposed robotized water system framework will be introduced.

I. INTRODUCTION
Investigation of the power in country India demonstrates that the power provided by Electricity Company is exceedingly erratic
and profoundly intruded. The greater part of the agriculturists have their land parcel at far of separation. All harvests in these
grounds rely on upon the best possible water system, which makes them to sit in the field and screen for the power and Turn ON
or OFF the pump. This makes them more troublesome in setting off to the land exchanging ON the pump for water system. Right
around a human asset is spent for this operation. A human asset time is taken round the check for all days in a year and making
them more stressed. To go around this issue a GSM answer for achieve the agriculturist independent of his area could be come to.
The arrangement goes for mechanizing the water system pump control requiring little to no effort and remembers the agriculturist
from his normal obligation of keeping up the water system pump cell phone is a standout amongst the most well-known and
valuable customer hardware devices on the planet today. As the gadget is so much mainstream and some portion of consistently
exercises, many extra circuits are built to make it still more component rich instrument. Such extra element is this framework
which enables client to switch on/off burdens from remote end. It discovers applications in homes, workplaces and even in
businesses. Here is a Mobile telephone worked gadget control circuit which empowers exchanging on and off of machines
through remote stations. It can be utilized to change machines from any separation, defeating the restricted scope of infra-red.
V. RESULTS
Various experimental tests showed that the system was able to function as expected and observed that the sensitivity of sensor was
affected by temperature during checking of soil moisture level to determine watering.
This somehow resulted in variations in the measured moisture values at different times from the set moisture values to
trigger watering. 80% out of10 trials were successful in responding correctly. The system was however, able to send SMS to the
user and LCD system upon starting and completing a scheduled task as well as the occurrence of events at all the 10 trials. Similarly,
the system was able to respond to the SMS command to turn the irrigation pump on and off for watering at all the trials.
VI. CONCLUSION
In this project automatic controlling of solar pump sets and SMS alert has been discussed fruitfully. The overall idea is that users
to take advantage of the globally deployed GSM networks with its low SMS service cost to use mobile phones and simple SMS
commands to manage their irrigation system.
To demonstrate the functionality and performance of the controller system, the prototype was implemented and tested.
Results showed that it will be possible for users to use SMS to monitor directly the conditions of their farmland, schedule the water
needs for crops, automatic control of water and set control operational conditions in accordance with the water needs of crops. This
will help to minimize over water in gand crop production cost. Further, it will help users to take advantage of the prevailing GSM
networks to provide value added services.
