Every gardener wishes for a healthy, fruitful garden full of colorful plants, fertile soil, and less water wastage. It has never been simpler to make the dream come true, thanks to modern innovative technologies such as the garden drip irrigation system and organic options such as Puroxi (OB) Water Treatment for crops. These two tools complement each other to make your garden a lush, ...
Through the meter, farmers can understand the different electricity usage patterns of different fields, different crops, and identify excessive usage issues, allowing them to take timely measures to reduce electricity costs. For example, during irrigation, the meter can automatically control the irrigation equipment based on soil moisture and crop water ...
Precision agriculture (PA) is the use of advanced technologies to optimize field-level management. By leveraging data analytics, GPS, IoT, and various sensors, precision agriculture enables agronomists to make informed decisions, thereby enhancing crop yield and resource efficiency. This modern approach contrasts with traditional farming methods by emphasizing precision in monitoring, managing, ...

With devastating droughts and routine water scarcity, a more efficient system is critical. Irrigation System Automation In 2013, Murray Irrigation began their Private Irrigation Infrastructure Operators Program (PIIOP) with a goal to reduce water distribution losses by 37,596 megaliters (almost 10 billion US gallons) ...
Modern irrigation techniques use automated systems where irrigation schedules are controlled according to certain criteria. The objective of this study is to numerically estimate irrigation events, water content and temperature distributions, evaporation, drainage, and soil water under closed loop automated ...
Within the last 10 years throughout south-eastern Australia, there has been a rapid expansion of modernisation efforts by irrigation companies that has included installation of automatic control structures, the so-called total channel control (TCC) technology. ...
Considerable amounts of water can be saved by automating irrigation canals. The design of most of the practical automatic controllers rely on a simplified model of the irrigation canal. ...
.� The large wireless networks enabled by the data radio provide previously unavailable information to users in a wide range of industries. In Irrigation, soil moisture can be measured, zone valves can be operated and flow rate measured. In automated parking applications, literally thousands of parking spots city-wide can be monitored. ...
