Smart Irrigation System

Overview

Agriculture is a substantial user of water. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the UN, farming accounts for almost 70% of all water withdrawals and up to 95% in some developing countries. Inefficiencies with traditional irrigation practices waste half of this water. Irrigation is highly important on the agricultural sector, in specific the production of crops. Essential to growth and development, production yields, and crop quality is water and the precision of its usage. As among the most crucial inputs for crop production, proper water management is essential to the sustainability of the agriculture system.

Challenge

Smart irrigation is an irrigation system that takes into account either the weather or soil conditions to define its watering processes, which give growers the ability to optimize and track consumption. Especially in some Agriculture Countries, the Smart Irrigation System had become the hottest topic in every first page of the Technical Channels.

 

Key needs for smart Gaming Machine:

• Robust Design: Work stable in outside environment with strong humidity, high / low working temperature range. 

• Less Cost: Avoid high cost of wired-based console networking solutions, such as ADSL and fiber optics, and offer more flexible wireless network

• Better Service: Support to connect with different kinds of sensors via RS485 / Ethernet Ports..


Solution

NavigateWorx router is selected for this kind of application and we’re very glad to contribute as more as possible for the brilliant human project. NavigateWorx router supports rich interfaces including serials ports, Ethernet ports, DIs and Dos, which could provide abundant connections for various sensor models.

Everything can also be programmed directly through the RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) which then sends out the irrigation commands to the remote center. The solar powered RTU performs the irrigation command on a very long distance of the remote center through cellular network. lt also collects sensor data which is sent back to the RTU. Based on the seamless sensor data communication, new irrigation decisions can automatically be taken by remote center. After setting up the whole system, the crops production seems to be higher than ever before, this is really a big revolution of the human beings
