What is an IoT Soil Moisture System?

An IoT soil moisture system is a system that uses sensors and the internet to monitor and control the moisture level in the soil on a farm. The sensors in the system detect the moisture content of the soil and send the information to a device, such as a computer or a smartphone, over the internet. This allows farmers to check and adjust the moisture level of their soil from anywhere, and make sure their crops are getting the right amount of water to grow properly. With this technology, farmers can optimize their watering practices, save time, and help their crops thrive.

 

Why is it important to use IoT to manage soil moisture values?

Soil moisture is an important factor in agriculture as it affects the growth and health of crops. Too much or too little moisture can lead to crop damage or death. By using an IoT soil moisture system, farmers can monitor and control the moisture levels in their fields more accurately and efficiently. The system uses sensors to measure the moisture content in the soil and send the data to a central device where it can be analyzed and acted upon. This helps farmers make better decisions about when to water their crops, conserve water resources, and improve crop yields.
