Automatic Irrigation System

This report focus on the microcontroller PIC16F887 and a project made using this microcontroller named “AUTOMATIC IRRIGATION SYSYTEM”. The aim of this device is to develop an automatic irrigation system which automatically turns on or off the water supply system depending upon the moisture content of the soil. It works by the input of soil moisture sensor module if the moisture content detected by the sensor is less than a certain prescribed limit initiliases at the time of programming then the microcontroller automatically switch on the motor(pump) to irrigate the field without the intervention of any human benigs & it get automatically off after some prescribed time limit or can be off by detecting the output of sensor is raised above some limit set at the initiliasing time of programming.
