Abstract: The project is based upon Wireless Sensor Network and an android based interface. The advanced development in wireless sensor networks can be used in monitoring various parameters in agriculture. Due to uneven natural distribution of rain water, it is very difficult for the farmers to monitor and control the distribution of water to agricultural field as per the requirements of the crop. There is no ideal irrigation method for all weather conditions, soil structure and variety of crop cultures. The sensors are used to collect various data which is to be then analyzed. The android interface provides the farmer with a framework to communicate with experts and get immediate response. It also provides them detailed information about the governmental policies which they can make use of. The main motive of this idea is to provide the analyzed soil sample and the best suggestion on which crop will minimize the cost and maximize the profit. The application also gives specific weather predictions for the day/week. Details on agricultural loans with their interest rates are also shown in the android application interface. This project aims to reduce the stress and problems that adversely affect the farmers resulting in the loss of crops and human lives.
