Summary:
Using a DHT11 sensor, which will water the plants when they reach the
temperature and humidity specified by the user which will be displayed on an
LCD screen. Also, if the user wishes, they can water the plants by pressing a
button that will be connected to the Arduino board.
Introduction:
introduces a prototype of an advanced automatic irrigation system based on
the Arduino platform. This system not only provides automatic watering to
plants, but also intelligently monitors and controls the temperature and
humidity of the environment, allowing for optimal watering and precise
management of environmental conditions.
The system consists of temperature and humidity sensors that collect real-
time data from the surrounding environment. Using this data, the Arduino
microcontroller makes informed decisions to turn irrigation on or off. When
temperature and humidity levels fall outside predefined ranges, the system
activates irrigation to ensure plants receive the proper amount of water.
Problem Statement:
1.inefficient irrigation
2.lack of environmental control
3.need for plant supervision
Justification:
contribute to the conservation of water resources, reduce operating costs
and improve crop quality and yield, which is essential for sustainable
agriculture and food security in the future.

Theoretical framework:
1. Efficient Agriculture:
Agriculture needs to be more efficient to feed a growing population. Proper
irrigation is essential for crop success, but too much or too little water can be
detrimental.
2. Temperature and Humidity Sensors:

These sensors measure the temperature and humidity in the air. They are
useful to know the environmental conditions in a field.
3.Arduino:
Arduino is a small computer that can help make decisions based on sensor
data. It is easy to program and versatile.
4. Automatic Irrigation System:

An automatic irrigation system allows you to program when and how much
to water. This saves water and time.
5. Environmental Control:
Using temperature and humidity data to control irrigation helps avoid
unnecessary watering and provide the right amount of water to plants.
6. Advantages of Arduino
Arduino makes automation accessible and affordable, contributing to more
efficient and sustainable agriculture.

General and specific objective:

General objective
Design a prototype of an irrigation system using the Arduino programming
platform which will monitor temperature and humidity to minimize the time
spent caring for the plants.
Specific goal
- What will the DHT11 sensor do in this program?
- What function will the Arduino board have?
- How will you ensure that the plants are watered when instructed?
Methodology:
How it was made?
Who? This prototype was developed by student Jonathan Yair Garro with the
help of computer science professor Marvin
When? It was prepared from 08/30/23 to 09/20/23
Where? This project was developed at the Platanares Technical College

Parts used:
Arduino board: An Arduino board is an open-source hardware development
platform that is used to create interactive projects. It is composed of a
programmable microcontroller and a series of input and output pins that
allow the connection of sensors, actuators and other electronic components.
LCD screen: A display device that uses liquid crystal technology to display
information. These screens are compact and usually have small sizes
Water pump: Electromechanical device specifically designed to operate

underwater. It is composed of a compact and sealed electric motor, along
with a hermetic sealing system to protect it from water and prevent moisture
from entering. These motors are usually small in size
Relay: The main function of the relay is to stop the operation of an electrical
system when it detects an unexpected fluctuation or overload to protect the
most sensitive elements. It also constantly tests the electric motor to find
major problems that need to be solved.
Proto board: It is a breadboard in which electronic elements and cables with
which circuits are assembled can be inserted without the need to solder any
of the components. The Protoboards have holes connected to each other by
means of small metal sheets.
Endurance: It causes a restriction to the passage of current, limiting it and,
specifically, regulating it. Of course, a resistance combined with other
elements such as capacitors (capacitors), coils, diodes ... They form complex
circuits with concrete functions. A resistor can be defined as any material
medium that limits the passage of electric current.

Cables
Red: Power cable and charging
Black, gray or brown: Phase wires. They transmit the electric current; it is
regularly used visibly taking care of the aesthetics of the place where they are
used.
White or blue: Neutral cables, do not have electric current.
Green and yellow: Grounding cable. Responsible for diverting energy in case
of electrical failure and thus protect people and electrical equipment.
