This paper presents the design and implementation of an automated drip irrigation system using an Arduino microcontroller, specifically developed for sweet corn cultivation. The proposed system utilizes soil moisture sensors to monitor soil conditions and regulate irrigation based on the moisture level, optimizing water usage and ensuring efficient crop growth. The system comprises an Arduino board, soil moisture sensors, a relay module, and a water pump, which work in tandem to automatically adjust irrigation cycles. This system aims to conserve water resources, reduce manual labor, and improve crop yield for sweet corn farming, particularly in areas with limited water availability. The experimental results demonstrate the system's effectiveness in maintaining optimal soil moisture and ensuring consistent irrigation for sweet corn cultivation.
