SolarSense: An loT-Based Smart Irrigation and Fertilizer System

This paper introduces a solar-powered smart drip irrigation and fertilizer management system designed to make farming more intelligent and resource-efficient.The system employs IOT-enabled soil and nutrient sensors that continuously assess field conditions, while a microcontroller regulates water and fertilizer flow with high precision.Powered by renewable solar energy, the setup operates independently of the grid, ensuring sustainability in rural and off-grid areas.Sensor data and system performance will visualized through a realtime loT dashboard, enabling remote supervision and decision-making.The proposed model significantly reduces water and nutrient waste, minimizes manual labor, and enhances crop productivity, establishing a step forward toward self-sustaining smart agriculture.
