The smart system measures the soil moisture with a moisture meter sensor which makes possible the automatic irrigation of the desired trees and plants (by considering the desired moisture range of any tree or plant, the desired amount of water and the desired time) manually (through sending SMS or missed call) or by using the technology of Internet of Things.

“Smart irrigation with Internet of Things enjoys the capability to activate or deactivate the system with a cell phone anywhere in the world, it can automatically collect data from satellite and order watering or canceling it by using the artificial intelligence,” Rezayee, the manager of the startup, told ANA.

He described real-time monitoring of soil moisture and informing the user as another advantage of this system.

“Compared to similar systems, this product saves 50% of water and does not require the presence of manpower to irrigate gardens and fields, and its price is lower than its counterparts,” Rezayee said.

The Internet of Things makes it easier for farmers to monitor and control water resources to meet demand and cut waste and operational costs. 

The smart irrigation management system is able to implement irrigation according to the needs of plants.
