    OBJECTIVE : To demonstrate the working of automatic plant watering system
    Using arduino and soil moisture sensor.

    COMPONENTS REQUIRED:-

    1. Arduino Nano
    2. Soil Moisture Sensor
    3. LCD Display (16 x 2)
    4. Relay Module
    5. DC Water Pump Motor
    6. Battery (9V)
    7. Breadboard
    8. Connecting Wires

    WORKING PRINCIPLE:-

    The soil moisture sensor reads the moisture level in the soil through arduino. If soil will get
    dry then sensor senses low moisture level and automatically switches on the water pump to
    supply water to the plant. As plant get sufficient water and soil get wet then sensor senses
    enough moisture in soil. After which the water pump will automatically get stopped.
    Depending on the moisture or humidity level of the soil, water pump is being set on or off.

    THEORY:-
    ARDUINO NANO
    The Arduino Nano is an open source breadboard–friendly microcontroller based on
    the Microchip ATmega328P microcontroller (MCU) and developed by Arduino.cc and
    initially released in 2008. It offers the same connectivity and specs of the Arduino Uno board
    in a smaller form factor.The Arduino Nano is equipped with 30 male I/Oheaders, in a DIP-30-
    like configuration, which can be programmed using the ArduinoSoftware integrated
    development environment (IDE), which is common to all Arduino boards and running both
    online and offline. The board can be powered through a type-B mini-USB cable or from a 9 V
    battery.
    SOIL MOISTURE SENSOR
    Soil moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content in soil. Since the
    direct gravimetric measurement of free soil moisture requires removing, drying, and
    weighing of a sample, soil moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content
    indirectly by using some other property of the soil, such as electrical resistance, dielectric
    constant, or interaction with neutrons, as a proxy for the moisture content. Soil moisture
    sensors typically refer to sensors that estimate volumetric water content. This sensor
    mainly utilizes capacitance to gauge the water content of the soil (dielectric permittivity).
    The working of this sensor can be done by inserting this sensor into the earth and the
    status of the water content in the soil can be reported in the form of a percent.

    SINGLE CHANNEL RELAY MODULE


    The Single Channel Relay Module is a convenient board which can be used to control high
    voltage, high current load such as motor, solenoid valves, lamps and AC load. It is designed
    to interface with microcontroller such as Arduino, PIC and etc.
    Specification:

     Digital output controllable


     Compatible with any 5V microcontroller such as Arduino.
     Rated through-current: 10A (NO) 5A (NC)
     Control signal: TTL level
     Max. switching voltage 250VAC/30VDC
     Max. switching current 10A
     Size: 43mm x 17mm x 17mm
    LCD DISPLAY

    A 16x2 LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is very basic module and is very commonly used in
    various devices and circuits. A 16x2 LCD means it can display 16 characters per line and
    there are 2 such lines. In this LCD each character is displayed in 5x7 pixel matrix. The 16 x 2
    intelligent alphanumeric dot matrix display is capable of displaying 224 different characters
    and symbols. This LCD has two registers, namely, Command and Data. Command register
    stores various commands given to the display. Data register stores data to be displayed. The
    process of controlling the display involves putting the data that form the image of what you
    want to display into the data registers, then putting instructions in the instruction register.
    DC WATER PUMP

    This is a low cost, small size Submersible Pump Motor which can be operated from a 3 ~ 9V
    power supply. It can take up to 120 liters per hour with very low current consumption of
    220mA. Just connect tube pipe to the motor outlet, submerge it in water and power it.

    BREADBOARD

    A Breadboard is simply a board for prototyping or building circuits on. It allows you to place
    components and connections on the board to make circuits without soldering. The holes in
    the breadboard take care of your connections by physically holding onto parts or wires
    where you put them and electrically connecting them inside the board. The ease of use and
    speed are great for learning and quick prototyping of simple circuits. More complex circuits
    and high frequency circuits are less suited to breadboarding. Breadboard circuits are also
    not ideal for long term use like circuits built on perfboard (protoboard) or PCB (printed
    circuit board), but they also don’t have the soldering (protoboard), or design and
    manufacturing costs (PCBs).
    Working of the Automatic Irrigation System

    In this system, the moisture sensor senses the moisture level of the soil and when the
    sensor senses a low moisture level it automatically switches the water pump with the help
    of a microcontroller and irrigates the plant. After supplying sufficient water, the soil gets
    retains the moisture hence automatically stopping the pump. The working of the soil
    moisture sensor is that it has 2 probes with exposed contacts that act like a variable
    resistor whose resistance varies according to the water content in the soil. This resistance is
    inversely proportional to the soil moisture which means that higher water in the soil means
    better conductivity and hence a lower resistance. While the lower water in the soil means
    poor conductivity and will result in higher resistance. The sensor produces an analog voltage
    output according to the resistance. The sensor comes with an electronic module that
    connects the probe to the Arduino. We need a small pump to irrigate the plant.
